Welcome to
Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church
Zion is a confessional Lutheran church located at 135 West Green Street in the heart of historic Marshall, Michigan.
Since 1856, we have welcomed all people into the fellowship of God's grace to receive the forgiveness of sins through the merits of Jesus Christ. The proclamation of the Gospel of Christ Crucified for sinners and the administration of the Sacraments are the central focus of our worship. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, these means of grace nurture our faith and give us the strength to meet life's joys and sorrows with confidence, assured of God's love and mercy in Christ. As the redeemed people of God and members of the Body of Christ, we extend His love to our neighbors through acts of charity and service and through our individual vocations.
We invite you to join us as we grow together in the grace and knowledge of the Triune God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Zion is a member congregation of the American Association of Lutheran Churches.
