We worship and praise God for what God has done for us in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. We at Zion Lutheran Church use the church year to help form us spiritually as disciples of Jesus.
We use the church year because each season gives us a different perspective of how God established a relationship with us and calls us to discipleship in Jesus.
We are currently in the season of Lent, leading up to and including Holy Week. Lent began with Ash Wednesday and concludes Easter Eve. Lent is traditionally a time for self-reflection and baptismal renewal. During Lent, we journey with Jesus to the cross and prepare ourselves for the Easter celebration. God uses this time to remind us of our sinfulness and our need for a Savior. It reminds us of just what Easter really is all about. The color for Lent is purple, a color that reminds us of repentance.
To help you walk your Spiritual Path we offer Labyrinths to deepen your relationship with God. The two different labyrinths we offer are an indoor Santa Rosa Labyrinth and an outdoor Cretan Labyrinth.
Lutherans form the Christian person through worship, catechesis, and individual prayer. Praying the Lutheran rosary which is based upon the six chief parts of the Catechism gives us an opportunity to combine catechesis and individual prayer. For more details on the actual form check out the ELCA website.
