About Us
The name Zion appears hundreds of times in the Bible in the
"Sing praises to the Lord enthroned in Zion, proclaim among the nations what He has done" (Psalm 9:11)
So we find Zion a very meaningful name for this place where we worship our God and proclaim his Word.
Our logo combines the name ZION with the mountain imagery and the cross of Christ - and notice that the cross is in the center and above all else. This is intentional, for "His name is above every name... that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father."
Who We Are
Zion Lutheran Church is one of over 6000 local congregrations of the Lutheran Church- Missouri Synod.
Being "Lutheran," we accept and teach Bible-based teachings of Martin Luther that inspired the reformation of the Christian Church in the 16th century. These teachings can be summarized in three short phrases: Grace alone, Scripture alone, Faith alone.
The word "Synod" in The Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod comes from the Greek words that mean "walking together." We voluntarily choose to belong to the Synod,and with all the other congregations of this church body, we hold to a shared confession of Jesus Christ as taught in Holy Scripture and the Lutheran Confessions.
