Zion Lutheran School is an NLSA Accredited School that is approved and renewed every 5 years.
Check In Weekly to Watch our Regular Live-Streams!
Your heartfelt weekly financial support of Zion Lutheran Church and School is necessary now more than ever, as our congregation continues to be confronted by rising ministry expenses.
Please remember that even when you are absent from worship, ministry expenses continue. Please prayerfully consider keeping current with your Weekly Offering for the Lord’s Work here at Zion. Regular online giving is one tool that can help tremendously in this task. Check this website for more information. You can also set up weekly/monthly direct deposit offerings through your local bank. Contact your bank for help and more information.
Please also remember and take to heart the words of St. Paul as they are found in 1 Corinthians 16. “On the first day of every week, each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with his income, saving it up, so that when I come no collections will have to be made.”
