Nineteenth Sunday After Pentecost

Welcome Friends and Guests:  In today’s gospel reading, Jesus tells a vineyard parable, which serves as an image of Israel, the prophets’ mission, and Christ’s death. For Christians, the vineyard also speaks of God’s love poured out in the blood of Christ, given to us for the forgiveness of sin. Grafted onto Christ the vine at baptism, we are nourished with wine and bread so that we may share Christ’s sufferings and know the power of his resurrection.

Worship: We welcome all into the fullness of God's love. If you are visiting, sign our guestbook as a record of your visit. Come back for worship and fellowship with us each Sunday at 10 a.m. 

Communion: We celebrate open communion. This is Christ’s table, all are welcome, as Christ welcomes all. You may come forward for the sacraments or cross your arms across your chest for a blessing. Our bread is gluten free and both wine and white grape juice (in center of communion tray) are available.

Fellowship: Please join us after worship today in the Fellowship Hall for coffee and conversation. All are welcome.

Zion’s Lutheran is a Reconciling in Christ (RIC) community of believers.
