150th Anniversary
Thank You!
The anniversary was celebrated with many special events throughout the year. Many meetings and lots of work with Pastor Ron made every event a success.
 
The picture directory started with many meetings, phone calls, and great participation by our members. Next came the Sesquicentennial Book…..Again, months and weeks of get to-gethers led by Pastor Ron and the committee of many volunteers. Finally The DVD’s were completed and they are wonderful.
 
October arrived with many special days for celebrations. October 1st hosted the German Pork Dinner for the community. October 2nd was the DVD’s of Zion’s members. October 9th was a special youth service. October 16th there was the 10:15am Worship Service followed by a free dinner for members and guests, 2:30 was the Anniversary Service. October 23rd was a special 10:15 Service with a Musical Concert in the evening. October 30th was the Family Harvest Turkey Dinner, and the children’s Halloween events. Thank You! God is blessing Zion through all of YOU!
We had many donations and we would like to say thank you to all. Thank You Everyone!
 
The celebration should continue in our hearts as we praise God for the people of Zion. We ask that He guide us into the future and show Zion the way to reach out to His people here and in the community. We have our mission!
Know Jesus, Make Jesus Known.
150th Anniversary
 
What a day! The church was full of wonderful people who came to celebrate our 150th Anniversary on October 16th! Our month of celebration was a wonderful way to praise God for blessing Zion these many years. Thank you everyone that came and to all the people that worked to make it a day to remember! The directory was a great start of celebrating Zion’s people. The DVD’s are spectacular! Thanks to Brenda, Sandy and our youth for the October 9th Service.
 
The October 16th Sunday’s events are special memories of the past; but with hope and love for God’s house in the year to come, we hope to enrich our faith and ask God’s guidance for Zion and our future.
 
Thank you also for all that contributed to our memorabilia of pictures, etc. Please pick yours up after October 30th.
Again, Thank You and Praise be to God for Zion and our families.
 

The books and the three DVD’s are still available at $1.50 each. Contact Pastor Ron if you are interested

The committee is looking for members with history at Zion:


 Oldest living, long-time member
 Oldest living member
 Longest living married couple
 Information about Zion in the past 50 years
 Dates for improvements, like the paving of our parking lot, etc.
 General, fun information

We are planning a book for our last 50 years . . . we will need your help! How, you may ask? We need you to add your memories to the “I Remember When” chapter of the book. EX: “I remember when Ruth & Kenneth Olrich sang duets in the church service.”

We will need volunteers to help update our confirmation classes’ pictures. We also need to re-glue and clean the cases. Pastor will help with information.


If anyone would happen to have old pictures of the inside or outside of Zion, and/or its members from yesteryear, please see Pastor Ron.  We would like to use them to help celebrate our 150th anniversary in 2011.

Thanks!
