Welcome to Zion
Join Us In Worship
Each time we gather for worship, we focus our hearts on the life, death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus as we listen to God’s Word. On Sunday morning, we gather for worship following the traditional liturgies of the church and singing hymns from the Lutheran Service Book.
During our midweek worship service on Wednesday evening, we gather in the Great Hall for a more informal worship time which features some hymns and a shortened liturgy. Our Saturday afternoon contemporary worship service features our music team, Rock of Zion, leading our singing.

Zion Lutheran School has a place for your child. Since our earliest days, our congregation has been committed to providing quality Christ-centered education for kids in our church and community.
We offer childcare services for infants and toddlers, a terrific preschool environment for your kids and a quality kindergarten through eighth grade nationally accredited school where kids will learn about Jesus’ love for them and the wonders of this world. We provide a safe, secure, stable environment for our students and their families where every child is valued, prayed for and loved.

Alleluia! Christ is risen!
He is risen, indeed! Alleluia!
Today we celebrate Jesus' ascension into heaven. We invite you to join the Bay City circuit churches as we gather for worship at Pilgrim this evening at 7. We will sing together:
"Sing how Jesus came from heaven,
How He bore the cross below,
How all power to Him is given,
How He reigns in glory now!
Tis a great and endless theme,
Oh, 'tis sweet to sing of Him!"

As we prepare to celebrate Jesus homecoming to heaven on Ascension Day, we will worship on Thursday, May 29 at Pilgrim in Essexville. There will be no Wednesday worship at Zion as we join with our friends from the Bay City Circuit to rejoice in our ascended Jesus who is preparing a home for us in heaven.
"Hark, those bursts of acclamation!
Hark, those loud triumphant chords!
Jesus takes the highest station;
Oh, what joy the sight affords!
Crown Him! Crown Him! Crown Him!
Crown Him! Crown Him!
King of kings and Lord of lords!
King of kings and Lord of lords!"
