Twenty First Sunday After Pentecost

Welcome Friends and Guests:  In today’s first reading God uses the Gentile ruler Cyrus to accomplish divine purposes. When the Pharisees try to trap Jesus, he tells them to give the emperor what belongs to him and to God what belongs to God. To gather for worship reminds us that our ultimate allegiance is to God rather than to any earthly authority. Created in the image of God, we offer our entire selves in the service of God and for the sake of the world.

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.
