About this church
Mount Zion Missionary Baptist Church begins Sunday School at 9:00 a.m. and morning worship at 10:40 in East St. Louis. AWANA follows worship on first and third Sundays, while Baptist Training Union follows on second and fourth Sundays. A senior-citizens ministry meets Tuesdays from 9:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., and Mid-Week Prayer and Fuel Stop gathers Wednesdays at noon.
The congregation’s history reaches back to the nineteenth century, with worship at the Bond Avenue site beginning in 1968. Its ministry has long combined preaching, Christian education, music, youth leadership, scholarships, mission giving, and civic involvement. Mount Zion describes itself as baptized believers expressing God’s love inclusively through worship, witness, and Christian service. Those commitments give visitors several ways to enter church life beyond the main service. Families attending AWANA or Baptist Training Union should choose the appropriate Sunday and confirm the post-worship schedule. Newcomers interested in weekday fellowship can use the Tuesday seniors gathering or Wednesday prayer hour as smaller points of connection.
