Welcome To Zion Lutheran Church!

Zion Lutheran Church proclaims the saving Gospel of Jesus Christ to you! We are a confessional congregation, with traditional worship services, Bible study, and Sunday School for children. We have an active youth program, mission outreach and a lively volunteer community. We invite you to fellowship with us in Christ.

The Mission

Our mission is God’s Mission for us: reaching out to the community as we embrace our fellow members, building on the strength of our heritage in the true Word of God. As loving Christians called by God to serve Him according to His purpose, we proclaim Christ crucified and risen for all.

1886

Founded in 1886, Zion has seen many changes over the years, from a small group of German immigrants gathering in a small frame building to over 800 souls from all walks of life gathering in a beautiful, 25,000 sq. ft. facility to be served by the same unchanging Lord of all. We welcome anyone to join our walk with Him!

Zion Lutheran Church

The Mission of Zion Lutheran Church is to reach out to the community as we embrace our fellow members, building on the strength of our heritage in the true Word of God. To this end, Zion's members see themselves as loving Christians called by God to serve Him according to His purpose.

You have come to Mount Zion, to the heavenly Jerusalem, the city of the living God. You have come to thousands upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly, to the church of the firstborn, whose names are written in heaven. Heb. 12:22-23

About Us

As a member of the Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod (LCMS), Zion Lutheran Church holds to the teachings of the Holy Scriptures (the Bible) and confesses the faith revealed in it. The Book of Concord, and the Small Catechism contained in it, offer an excellent summary of the Bible's teaching, but the following is a brief description of the Good News presented in the Scriptures

There is only one true God. In the Scriptures, this one true God has revealed Himself to be one God in three persons–the Holy Trinity: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.

Coronavirus Announcement and Resources

Dear saints of Zion,

In this time where many activities are being canceled and schedules are upset, our attention should be on the Word of God.

Please do note we are posting our entire services online.

Confidence in Christ, who rose from the dead, over our sins, is not optional for the Christian.

May the Lord cause us in this time of humbling to focus on the one thing needful in this life--faith in Christ's strong promises.

Our Communion Practice: What to Expect

Because communing together in the Holy Supper of Christ's body and blood presupposes unity in Christ's doctrine, we cannot invite all guests to the Lord's Table. Zion practices closed Communion to preserve our doctrinal unity in this Holy Meal in which Christ gives His body and blood for the forgiveness of sins.

The Resurrection is Practical

The resurrection is practical. In fact, there is nothing more practical on earth. Resurrection means to be raised from the dead. So, even though one dies, it does not mean the end. It makes death temporary. It is our hope. After all, Christians do not get ahead in this life because of their faith.
