God's Vision, Our Mission: To Build and Strengthen Relationships with Jesus Christ and Each Other
Relationships don't just happen, we need to cultivate friendships. A small group Bible study can be the place where it is safe to share out thoughts about God's Word. A place to get prayer support, and encouragement in times of trouble. A place to share the joys and blessings that Jesus Christ provides for us.

Women's Wednesday Bible Study
The Wednesday Morning Woman's Bible Study will begin Wednesday, September 4th. The group meets in the Conference room of the church every 1st, 3rd, and 5th Wednesday at 9:30 am. They are beginning a new study called Gifts, Chosen for YOU. It is 8 short sessions of a study written by Cheryl Mattil, a member of the Lutheran Women's Missionary League. It will give you a new understanding of the gifts of the Spirit. Please contact Debbie in the church office (630-323-0384) to let her know if you will be attending so that we can get a study for you. The study is free. Contact Jean Albert at 2alberts@comcast.net if you have any questions.
Men In The Morning
Men at Zion, along with several from other churches in the community, gather in Zion's Fellowship Hall every Thursday morning at 7:30 to review and discuss the weekly Bible readings. Through the fellowship that is enjoyed, participants respond by actively supporting those in need. We begin each session with prayer requests for individuals and groups. We also unite around community needs through donations of time, talents, and monetary resources.
