Spring 2024 Worship Schedule

We have one Sunday morning service available at 9:00 AM that features Holy Communion and a livestream. As a general rule, music styles will alternate every other week with traditional services on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month and contemporary services on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of the month.  Radio broadcast will continue to be live on KSDN radio 930 AM/102.1 FM.

Following worship, there will be a time of fellowship and Sunday School at 10:15 AM.

 

HOLY WEEK & EASTER SERVICES–Join us for services during Holy Week as we walk through the betrayal, death, and resurrection of Jesus. Holy Weeks starts with the Palm Sunday service on March 24th  at 9:00 AM. The Maundy Thursday service on March 28th at 6:05 PM will also include First Communion for our students.

In addition to Zion’s Good Friday evening service at 6:05 PM, there will be a community Good Friday    service held at Bethlehem Lutheran Church at noon. Holy Week concludes with a celebration of the        resurrection of Jesus at 9:00 AM on Easter Sunday (March 31st).

Youth and Family

PROGRESSIVE SUPPER AND ESCAPE ROOM–We’re having our monthly progressive supper with a twist! On Sunday, March 24, meet at Zion @ 4:15 PM. We will then be traveling up Main Street to Unravel to see if we can find the hidden treasure in their Midst Adventure escape room! After, we will be traveling to the VanderWeysts for supper. This event is open to middle and high school youth (grades 6-12)—bring a friend!

To be sure we have enough room in the escape room, please let Saundra know by Friday, March 22 if you plan to attend.


FIRST COMMUNION CLASS–  There will also be communion bread baking on Wednesday, March 27 at 6:00 PM, with the milestone during worship on Thursday, March 28 at 6:05 PM.

 

 

 

 

 

 SUMMER CAMP–If you have a 1st grade student or older, it’s time to start thinking about summer options for camp! Lutheran Outdoors in South Dakota offers three different locations with options to suit whatever interests you have!

If you are interested in applying for camp, please speak with Saundra as soon as possible so we can get you registered and discuss fundraising options.  There are some scholarship funds available, as well!

If we have enough kids interested, we will attend the Explorers Camp at NeSoDak August 9-11 as a Zion group. If your 3rd-5th grade child (as of Fall 2024) is interested in going together, please reach out to Pastoral Assistant Saundra.  Prices will go up on April 15.
