Every Sunday morning for all ages
9:00 am - 9:50 am
Everyone welcome!
Adult Bible Class meets in the Zion fellowship hall.
Youth Sunday School meets in Vicar's office/Zion gym.
Children's Sunday School meets in appropriate classrooms.
Sunday School classes for all ages, including high school youth and adults, will resume beginning on Sunday, September 8th, at our usual time of 9:00AM to 9:50AM every Sunday morning, unless otherwise announced. If families are considering Sunday School classes for their students for this year, please take some time to fill out a registration sheet, found in the church office and narthex, and then return them to Mr. J, or the church office, at your earliest opportunity. Each week, students should start in the Zion Lutheran Church gym and wait for their teacher to take them to their classroom.
This year, Kathy Tinker will be teaching the Pre-School through Kindergarten class, Kathy Test will be teaching the 1st through 3rd grade class, Claudia Riggert will be teaching the 4th through 6th grade class, and Mr. Jareske will be teaching the 7th through 12th grade class.
With that in mind, we are currently looking for several substitute teachers to assist in the event of teacher absences. If you are interested in helping with Sunday School during this year, or you would just like to inquire at this point, please let Mr. Jareske know, as soon as possible.
Otherwise, going into this new school year, please consider making Sunday School classes part of your weekly routine.
Recently, Mr. J and his students have been reviewing a broad summary of the early biblical accounts that we all grew up learning, just a little more deeply.
Our new vicar, Vicar Jacob Friedrich, will be teaching the Adult Bible class, and this group will be focusing on the Book of John.
Currently our Fusion Youth Group is a time for 7th through 12th grade students to gather, hear God's Word, discuss life, pray together, and have a good time with other Christian youth students.
For Youth Group, we typically meet on a scheduled Sunday, typically, from 5:00PM to 8:00PM in the Zion Lutheran Church gym. Check our updates below to find out more information about our next meeting.
In addition to our regular monthly meetings, we try to schedule, at least, one special event or activity each month, along with fundraisers, service projects, and other opportunities. More information about when these types of events will be taking place is featured below.
If you haven't visited before, consider joining us for our next adventure!
Our next regular Fusion Youth Group meeting for 7th through 12th grade youth students will take place on Sunday, March 16th, from 5PM to 8PM, at Zion Lutheran Church.
If you are considering joining us for the fun, consider bringing a friend along as well! A meal will be served, and no money is needed for this meeting.
COFFEE: The Zion Fusion Youth Group will continue to manage the coffee fellowship time as an ongoing fundraiser following both services on Sunday mornings.
CONFIRMATION: Confirmation classes for public school 7th and 8th grade students will be once again taking place on Wednesday afternoons, from 4:00PM to 5:30PM, beginning on Wednesday, September 4th, 2024. These classes will continue at that time on most Wednesday evening into the spring, unless otherwise announced. As in previous years, the 7th grade students will be learning from our new Vicar in the 7th/8th grade Zion Lutheran School classroom, and the 8th grade students will be learning from Pastor Bruce in the 5th/6th grade classroom. For more information, please contact the church office.
PUFFIN PASTRIES: Thank you to everyone who placed an order to help the youth with their fundraising initiatives! Barring any other weather related delays, the Pastry Puffin orders should be available for pick up starting on March 18th. Again, thank you for your understanding and patience. If anything changes, we will make sure to keep you updated.
ZION APPAREL: The last day to place your orders for Zion apparel will be Wednesday, March 12th, so you had better act soon if you would like a few clothing items featuring our church and youth group logo. To view options and prices, make purchases, and learn more details, please check out our online store portal (https://zionlutheran25.itemorder.com/shop/sale/) provided by Stadium Sports. The link can also be found on our church website and Facebook page. Also, if you can’t see yourself wearing any of these items, but you would like to possibly donate to buy an item for someone else, please feel free to let Mr. J know.
ALUMINUM CAN COLLECTION: For those registered to attend, our next planning meeting will take place in the church fellowship hall today, February 23rd, beginning at 5:00PM. We will be discussing our plans for our extra time while in New Orleans, so if you would like to have an opinion on this subject, I would highly recommend attending this meeting. Pizza will be served for those who wish to eat.
LENTEN MEAL: The youth group will be hosting the Lenten meal on Wednesday, March 26th, beginning at 6PM in the Zion Lutheran Church kitchen/lunchroom. We do ask that families arrive at 5:30PM, if possible, to help with setup and organization.
To aid with this process, we have created a sign-up document, featured below, with more information and a way for families to specify how they may be able to assist. For this meal we will be offering a baked potato bar, and we are asking that families sign up to bring either toppings and/or trays of bars.
If anyone can think of any items that have been left off the sign-up sheet and would like to donate any of those items, please feel free to let us know. Based on the tepid response during our Advent meal, we are not planning to offer to-go containers for this meal.
