Thank you for visiting our website!
For Many Years, Oh God of Grace!
"The purpose of this congregation is to share the true Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, throughout our membership, our communities and the world."
Zion is....a congregation of The Lutheran Church Missouri Synod. The LCMS was chartered in 1847 and Zion joined Synod in 1880.
Zion was chartered in 1873 and is one of the oldest continuous congregations of the LCMS between here and the west coast.
Zion is....a Christ centered, Bible believing congregation. Based on the tenets of the Lutheran Reformation - Grace Alone, Faith Alone and Scripture Alone - Zion's focus is always the blood that Christ has shed for us.
Zion is....a congregation committed to Christian education and youth. Even before having their first pastor, classes were being held in a sod cabin.
Zion is....a rural congregation with great diversity. Locally, Zion draws members from Aurora, Bradshaw, Hampton, Henderson, Hordville,Grand Island, Marquette, Polk, Sutton and York. The diversity of the congregation is reflected in the occupational pursuits of Zion's members.
Zion is....a mission minded church having shared members to start Immanuel, Polk: Salem and St. Peter, Hampton; and having helped St. Paul, Central City. Mission starts were considered in Bradshaw and Sutton. Currently Zion is sponsoring a preaching station in Aurora. Mission groups at Zion have been active in Gospel outreach and support as well as social ministry.

Sunday School News
We met Eddie the Comfort Dog and his handlers Don and Connie last Sunday, September 13. They talked to the kids and Bible Study about the service that comfort dogs provide. This is my fourth or fifth attempt to get Eddie to visit--he is a very busy dog! The presentation was very interesting and a great service to many people.
I could still use another teacher to help co-teach for the Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd age class, please text me at 402-694-8591 if you think you could help teach this year.
Thank you for all the snack donations! I know this kids love this and many of you were very generous with your donations and so thank you once again for your generosity! Feel free to call or text me with any care or concerns! Thanks! Lacey Panko

WOW -Women of the Word Bible Study
W.O.W. (Women Of the Word) will be starting a new Bible Study on September 15, 2020, at 7:00 AM @ St. Peter Hampton Fellowship Hall. We will be meeting every Tuesday morning. The name of the study is "JOY-A Study of Philippians" by Deb Burma. "Sure, we find joy in our triumphs, but not so much in the trials. Yet real joy, genuine joy, is always ours in the saving grace of Christ Jesus. This close look at St. Paul's Letter to the Philippians unpacks messages of contentment, confidence, humility, and hope-all found in Christ and infused with joy." All women are invited to join us. If you have any questions, contact Kathy Gloystein. (402-416-7753)
