Welcome Friends and Guests: As we celebrate the Twelve Days of Christmas, our gospel today confronts us with the death of innocent children at the hands of Herod. The birth of Christ does not remove the power of evil from our world, but its light gives us hope as we walk with all the “holy innocents” of past generations and of today who have suffered unjustly. In our gathering around word and meal, God continues to redeem us, lift us, and carry us as in days of old.
Worship: We welcome all into the fullness of God's love. If you are visiting, please fill out a yellow guest card and put it in the offering plate as a record of your visit. Come back and worship 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 for coffee and conversation in the Fellowship Hall. All are welcome.
Zion’s Lutheran is a Reconciling in Christ (RIC) community of believers.
