Whether you ordered the "I've Got a Testimony!" devotional or not, we want ALL members to join us in our No Complaints November Challenge. This is an invitation to shift our mindset, deepen our gratitude, and grow in faith together as a church family.

🙌🏾 How It Works

For the entire month of November, we’re committing to let gratitude guide us — even when life gets frustrating. Here’s how you can participate:

  • ✋🏾 No Complaining: When you’re tempted to complain, pause and name something you’re grateful for instead.
  • 🤲🏾 No Stressing: Release what you can’t control and trust God with the rest.
  • 🙌🏾 No Worrying: Replace anxious thoughts with worship and prayer.
  • ✋🏾 No Fearing: Lean into faith and remember that God has not given us a spirit of fear.
  • 🤲🏾 No Chaos: Pursue peace in your mind, home, and conversations.


💰 Gratitude Jar Commitment

Each time you catch yourself slipping (whether it’s a complaint, a worry, or a moment of fear) drop a quarter, dollar, or any amount you choose into your Gratitude Jar (jars provided at no cost for those who purchased the devotional). Think of it as a small, tangible reminder to reframe your thoughts and as a spiritual investment in the work God is doing through our church. At the end of the month (or each week), we’ll collect the contents of our jars and use these funds to support our Be the Church outreach efforts during the holiday season where we are God’s hands and feet in our community.

✨ Why It Matters

 Each time you choose thanksgiving over complaining, worship over worry, and peace over chaos, you’re shaping your heart and strengthening our collective witness as a church. Let’s journey through November with hearts full of gratitude and eyes focused on the goodness of God.

In an effort to keep everyone safe during worship and ministry activities, our Trustees are asking all members and guests to help us maintain a secure environment. In this current climate, we must all do our part to stay vigilant and protect one another. Please remember the following important guidelines:

Be aware of your surroundings at all times while on church property. If you see something that doesn’t feel right, notify a Trustee or Staff Person immediately.

Do not prop open any exterior doors under any circumstances. All doors should remain closed and locked unless they are being actively monitored.

Arrive on Time for Worship: Arriving on time also helps us maintain a secure environment, as it reduces the need to open the exterior doors multiple times once worship has begun.

Exit the building promptly after worship and other events so that our Trustees can properly secure the church.

Thank you for partnering with us to make Sixth Mount Zion a safe and welcoming place for everyone.


Need a Ride to Worship?

If you need transportation, please contact the church office (804-648-7511) by Friday at 12:00 PM. Let us know that you plan to attend worship every Sunday and you will stay on the list each week. It is your responsibility to let the church office know by Friday if you will NOT need a ride.
