Acolytes serve as assistants to the Pastor during the various Sunday morning and evening worship services, as well as the mid-week services. They bear the cross, light the candles, help with collection of the offerings, etc.
The lawn care group cares for the grounds of the church by mowing, trimming, and edging once a week from March through mid-November, and on an “as needed” basis at other times during the year.
The Altar Guild provides spiritual, behind the scenes service to our Lord by preparing the Eucharist for each worship service.
The group creates, packs, and mails Braille Gospel, Lent/Easter Hymn Books, and the Book of Luke, making it possible for thousands of blind and visually impaired people throughout the world to touch and read about the love of Jesus.
The Daylighters meet the second and fourth Monday from 9:30-11:00 am in Trinity Hall. The group does several service projects a year and each month contributes to the LWML mites. The Daylighters welcome and encourage all women of the church to join them. You do not have to be active in the LWML to participate.
The Moonlighters are sponsored by the LWML (Lutheran Women’s Missionary League) and meet for fellowship, Bible study, and service. Meets the third Tuesday of the month at 7:00 pm.
An hour is spent praying for the ministers, staff, teachers, and teacher’s aides of Zion. Prayers are also said for the people listed in the bulletin, missionaries, Zion members in the armed forces, and personal family members. Meets Thursdays at 10:00 am.
Quilters usually work on assembling the tied quilts consisting of back, filler, and pieced tops which have been cut, assembled, and stitched at home. The work requires only basic sewing skills and is an enjoyable group project. Meets every Thursday from 10:30 am to noon.
Ushers perform various duties to help church services run smoothly and to help visitors feel comfortable. They assist by greeting people, distributing bulletins, helping parishioners in finding seats, collecting the offering, and directing people.
The tellers count and record the regular offerings and special gifts Zion receives.
