Worship and Music:
Zion has three weekly opportunities for worship:
1. Sunday morning at 8:30: Zion has a classical Lutheran worship service in accord with Lutheran tradition and the church year. Zion’s choir usually practices for this worship at 7:45 on Sunday morning. The Choir’s Director is Keith Johnson. He can be reached at Zion at 320-693-3207. The choir sings a wide variety of music with a preference for American gospel.
2. Sunday morning at 10:45: Zion has a contemporary Lutheran worship service while preserving church year lessons and the structure of the Lutheran worship service. It has different worship teams leading worship each week. One week is led by the Gilman Street (Jazz) Band, another week is Christian Routes (country, blue grass) led by Pastor Christian, a third group is the Zion Youth Worship Team led by Breanne Royer, and the fourth group is as yet unnamed of contemporary Christian music led by Mindy Czycalla, Mike and Deb Sundin, and Pastor Christian. Any of those leaders can be contacted through Zion’s office at 320-693-3207. Additional musicians are welcomed.
3. Wednesday evening at 6:30: Zion has a blended service and sometimes uses the Holden Evening Prayer Service. This more intimate service is under the direction of the pastors.
