Each year the people at Zion undertake a secret mission: to proclaim the resurrection of Jesus on Easter morning by decorating the route through town with balloons. Balloon prep is held the Saturday morning before Easter. Then, early on Easter Sunday, volunteers take those balloons and decorate both sides of Highway 92 all the way through Treynor. Operation Easter gives a visible reminder that sets Easter apart for all to see, giving people an opening to share that Jesus Lives! To be respectful, all ballons are taken down that evening. Each year we put out around 1,000 balloons along Highway 92. Please come and help this ministry in 2019. All ages, stages, and church affiliations welcome.
