Introduction to Membership
A New Member Introduction is held about 3 times each year, focused on getting to know the staff, and other members. There will also be a brief overview of Lutheran Christian beliefs and practices, the ministries of Zion, and expectations of members.
Event Details

The next New Member Introduction will be held after worship on Wednesday, October 3.
