Zion Lutheran Church: Is a servant Church:
No matter what you level of ability or skill, the people of
Zion are always looking to serve Christ by serving their neighbor
(Matthew 25:35-40,Luke 10:25-37,John 13:34-35) in a variety of ways.
Zion Lutheran Church: Is a worshipping Church:
In worship we know that we are not trying to please God or win
His favor. Rather we gather to receive the good gifts from Him in Word
and Sacrament.
We hold midweek services during Advent and Lent and during other church festivals.
We use a variety of robust services found in the Lutheran Service Book.
We hold faithfully to the guidelines of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod as witnessed in the historic Church.
Zion Lutheran Church: Is a family:
Being a part of this congregation means you always have
brothers and sisters in the faith to rejoice with in times of happiness
and to be there for you in times of need.
Zion Lutheran Church: Is Christ's Church!
We know that a Church is not just a
gathering of like-minded people but rather it is the work of the Holy
Spirit who calls, gathers and enlightens His people on earth.
We thank God every day for those whom He has blessed this fellowship
with.
Zion Lutheran Church: Is a ministry of the Lutheran Church ~
Missouri Synod. To say this means we joyfully hold to the historic
truths of the Christian Church:
- Sola Fide (Faith Alone): We believe, teach and confess
that we are saved through Faith Alone in the saving work of Jesus
Christ. (Ephesians 2:8)
- Sola Gratia (Grace Alone): We believe, teach and confess
that the saving faith we have in Jesus Christ is a gift of Grace and a
work of God and not man.
(Ephesians 2:8-9, 1 Corinthians 12:3, John 6:29, John 6:65)
- Sola Scriptura (Scripture Alone): We believe, teach and
confess that the Scriptures are the only source for reading God's Holy
Word (2 Timothy 3:16, John 5:39, John 7:38).
All doctrines of this Church are taken from Holy Scriptures. This is
best exemplified by the Book of Concord, a series of writings that
interpret the Scriptures on
several topics. We hold faithfully that these interpretations as a true
understanding of God's unchanging Word.
History

storefront on Muldoon Road. Ground breaking ceremonies were held on the
2.5 acre site, where Zion now stands,
on July 12, 1964. By New Year's Day 1965, the congregation had begun
worshipping in the basement of the church building. Dedication services
for Zion were held on
March 14, 1965. The parsonage was completed in 1968. Zion facilities
were expanded with the building of an education wing in 1974. |
