Zion Lutheran Church has always been an active part of the world community. From sponsoring a missionary in Russia to support of rural ministry,from Lutheran World Relief to providing a community used furniture room, Zion is "a church without walls". Our members recognize the importance of their baptisms and through worship and regular holy communion, believe God's call to discipleship is a call to faith in action. We invite you to worship with us.

This past week someone sent me a quotation by Wendy Wright in The Vigil, 1992. Repentance is not necessarily the gloomy and self-loathing practice it is sometimes made out to be. To repent is not to be confirmed in what that little voice within keeps whispering: that you are no good, that everything bad that happens to you is your own fault, that if only others knew what you were really like, they would cease to care for or be interested in you. No.
True repentance begins with the felt knowledge that we are loved by God...Repentance consists not so much in flagellating ourselves over our "failures" as in courageously and painstakingly reorienting our priorities, unlearning old patterns, turning our faces, like the sunflower, toward the dawning of the light of God.
Easter, that "'great, gettin' up mornin'" is coming. Let us welcome the rising of Jesus Christ with the full knowledge of His love for us and that in that love we can truly be His people in this time and in this place.
Christ is risen! He is risen, indeed! Alleluia! |
