Announcements for the Week of October 1
Here are some highlights of the events and happenings at Zion. For a full list of announcements, please click here.
Worship and Fellowship
Fall 2023 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. Hub City Radio graciously accommodated our change in worship, so our radio broadcast will continue to be live at the new time on KSDN radio 930 AM/102.1 FM.
Following worship, there will be a time of fellowship and Sunday School at 10:15 AM.
GOD’S WORK OUR HANDS OPPORTUNITIES

BIBLE STUDY—There will be Bible Study available beginning October 4th. The fall session will be over the Old Testament. Classes are available Wednesday evenings at 6:30 PM in the fellowship hall and on Thursdays at 12:00 PM in Classrooms A&B.

Youth and Family
IT’S FALL, YA’LL!–Mark your calendar–if you love all things fall, this one is for you!
On Sunday, October 1, the middle and high school youth from Zion, Good Shepherd, and St. John’s in Warner will come together for a joint fall event!
We will meet at Zion at 2:30 PM and travel to the Back Forty Beef Adventure Farm outside Pierpont. There will be a corn maze, straw tunnels, slide, games and a corn box to check out! Once we’re done, we’ll then travel back to Zion for a soup supper. Alternate fall activities planned if it’s raining!
Cost is $5 per youth; this event is open to kids in grades 6-12.
WOOD ROUND FUNDRAISER–The Youth committee will be selling wood rounds as a fundraiser. Proceeds from the sales will be used for youth programming. Sales will run from October 1- 22. All signs will be made and ready for pickup by Sunday, November 5, just in time to decorate for fall and Christmas! Different designs are available which will be customized with your last name, so you will be able to choose what you would like, including size! To order, complete an order form on the table in the narthex.
DRIVE UP DONUTS–On the last Wednesday of the month, donuts and a devotion will be available for pickup at Zion and Good Shepherd Lutheran churches. Simply enter the south parking lot, drive up to the table, and a helper will hand you donuts and a devotion that you can enjoy on your way to school. The next drive up donuts event will be held on Wednesday, October 25 from 7:30—8:00 AM. This event will be open to kids of all ages (and any parents/adults who are chauffeuring)! Need to be present to receive a donut.
