Free Advent Devotionals

Free Advent Devotionals
As a part of the 2024 Advent series, His Name Shall Be Called daily devotions focus on the coming Messiah through Advent and Christmas. Take time to ponder these short devotions featuring Scripture, a short message, and a prayer throughout the season of Advent.  

About the Theme
Wonderful Counselor. Mighty God. Everlasting Father. Prince of Peace. These titles from Isaiah 9 describe the Savior who is to come, Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God in human flesh. In this Advent series, Zion Lutheran Church will encounter the person and work of Christ as foretold by the prophet Isaiah. 

Available for free in the Narthex or side entrance.

Spare Change Sunday

Deposit your spare change starting Sunday November 10th through December 1st, in the container in the back of the sanctuary to support our Youth! A little spare change from each of us can go a long way toward helping our youth attend the LCMS Youth Gathering in New Orleans this coming summer.

Thanksgiving Eve Services Wed. Nov. 27th @ 2:00 p.m. & 7:00 p.m.

Sergiu Trifa, Seminarian student

Thanksgiving Eve Services
Join us Wednesday November 27, 2024 for our Thanksgiving Eve services at 2:00 p.m. & 7:00 p.m.. Thanksgiving offerings will support Seminarian Sergiu Trifa, a native Romanian who has assisted Ukranian Lutheran refugees (see below). 

---

Sergiu Trifa is a native Romanian currently in his second year at Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, IN with the goal of becoming a Lutheran pastor. He's the son of Rev. Sorin-Horia Trifa, a Romanian pastor who works with the LCMS. His story is one of faith in action, most notably his mission work in Romania, where in 2022, he led thousands of Ukrainian refugees from their war torn communities to safety in Romania.

In order to support Sergiu's journey toward becoming a pastor, Zion will be designating all offerings at our Thanksgiving Eve Services to his educational expenses. The cost associated with pursuing a seminary degree in Pastoral Studies is formidable, and is sometimes a severe obstacle for students. It is our hope that we can support this amazing young man, as part of our broader efforts to support the development of more full-time church workers for our Lutheran congregations!

You may donate via check or cash in your envelope. Please make checks payable to "Zion Lutheran Church." You may also mail your check to the church office or contribute online.
