Missions
Serving others, in our church...
Our needs as a congregation are diverse. From young families meeting the daily challenges
of new parenthood to our infirm and homebound members who are no longer able to attend
regular church services. We as a congregation are committed to serving and meeting the
needs of our church family. We support each other by volunteering our time and
talents.... from volunteering in the nursery to bringing communion and visiting with our
homebound in our Homebound Ministry to lifting up the needs of our church members through
our Prayer Chain. We are a church family that cares, and cares for each other.
Serving others, in our community...
At Zion, we recognize we are called to share Christ’s love and serve others not
only by ministering to them spiritually, but also in reaching out a helping hand in
meeting basic daily needs. We are called to support local organizations financially
and with our greatest strength, our people! Some of the areas in which we volunteer
include:
We support as a church and individually a variety of global ministries.
Several Lutheran organizations you may want to review online are:
Aid is Getting Through in Gaza
As fighting in the Gaza strip continues to escalate, Lutheran World Relief (LWR) is working
to deliver much-needed assistance to innocent civilians devastated by the conflict.
Delivering aid to the conflict zone is a difficult and costly process.
You can help by making a contribution to the LWR Mid-East Crisis fund at
Lutheran World Relief, by phone at
