Youth Ministry
Growing Strong Roots in Faith, Friendship and Fellowship
"Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity"
- 1 Timothy 4:12
Youth Sundays
At Zion Lutheran Church, our youth are an active and valued part of our church family.
On the fourth Sunday of each month, Youth Sunday gives students the opportunity to nourish leadership skills and participate in worship by leading music, greeting, children's messages, and more!
Best wishes to Emlen Bitner, Braden Carr and Laila Manchester, our graduating seniors as they are presented with their tote gift boxes from Zion!
