Mt. Zion Church celebrates 100 years of worship
The Mt. Zion Church was organized in 1923 under the leadership of Rev. M.P. Shephard with a small congregation but faithful band of worshipers giving God the glory and praise under a tent on Deacon Ike Moore’s place. During the winter months service were held in a little log cabin on Deacon Tom Holloway’s property.
