Children's Message Time

FAQS

  • What about my kids?

    Sunday Mornings for Kids:


    Children are given an age-appropriate "Children's Worship Bulletin" upon entering the church. As they feel comfortable, they are  invited to come forward for a special message just for them in the middle of the service. 


    They can color  and work on the puzzles in the Children's Bulletins as these are related to the text of scripture they have just heard about. We also have soft cloth "busy books" and cloth carry bags with crayons and other items.


    We offer Sunday School classes following service at 10:30 AM for children of all ages. 


    We do not offer "Children's Church" separate from the adults, as we feel the children learn much about our pattern of worship by participating along with the adults.


    Parents with infants to toddlers may wish to use the Caring Place  (Cry Room) that has toys and books for the little ones while their parents can watch and listen to the service on the monitor provided in that room.


  • How long is a worship service?

    In total, our worship services are about 60 minutes in length. Our Divine Service follows a liturgical pattern that has a rhythm and flow leading up to the Sermon and then flows into the weekly Prayer of the Church. Songs with both music and lyrics are printed in our worship bulletins. 


    Our pastor will share a message (about 15 minutes) based on a text of Scripture that has been read during the service. The message involves our need to repent, as we all fall short, and the grace and forgiveness won for us by the person and work of Jesus Christ.

  • What's the culture like at Zion Lutheran Church?

    Sundays at the church are friendly and unassuming. Come as you are and expect to feel welcomed as our guest!


    During Advent and Lent we hold Midweek evening services on Wednesday nights. This is a time where we come together for fellowship and a light meal before gathering together for a short service with meditation in our Sanctuary.  Ministries for all ages take place on Wednesday nights during Advent and Lent and these usually follow a specific theme leading to a culmination as the season reaches its climax.

Seasonal Midweek Service

6:00 pm

Wednesday

On Wednesdays during Advent and Lent, we meet informally for a light meal in the Fellowship Hall, followed by a shorter devotional service to share God's word. We meditate on the themes of the season and sometimes will follow a series leading us deeper into the text of Scripture to be discussed.

Friendship Sundays

9:00 am

5th Sundays

Each month that has a FIFTH Sunday (about once per quarter), we meet as a church as we celebrate a lighter service (without communion). We invite the broader community for fellowship and welcome friends with a light breakfast. All are welcome!

 We listen to Our God as He tells us of what He has done to bring us true and lasting salvation. To hear more... plan to visit on any Sunday at 9 am or watch online any time.

the VICTORY HAS BEEN WON

As we live in a broken world, the darkness of sin has shrouded us and separated us from our God. But the good news is the God has had mercy on us. Instead of giving us the punishment we rightfully deserve, He has sent is Son, Jesus Christ to take on what we deserve - death. The happy exchange is that He has taken our sins and given us His righteousness. And with His resurrection, we are given New Life through faith in Christ Jesus, by the Grace of God, for all eternity.
