A lack of records and documentation hinder the publishing of additional information regarding the earliest years of Mt. Sinai history.  A void remains regarding the beginning events of our predecessors concerning in their faithfulness and dedication.  Research efforts are being made to recover as much of Mt. Sinai's history as possible. As we are continuing efforts to recover our past, we do not want to fail to capture the present. In order to accurately record ministry work, we are asking ministry leaders to share programs and special events, and activities. If you can be of any assistance in providing records, documentation, or memorabilia, please contact Sonya Patterson or the Church Office at 451-0808.
