Sunday School

 Our Sunday School is offered in an informal, fun, and caring environment designed to give children a good overview of the biblical stories of faith. To ensure that children can participate in the worship and Holy Communion, classes start 15 minutes prior to the worship service. This allows them to attend their class and then join the rest of the congregation for worship. In addition, children are invited to take part in special services – such as the annual Children's Christmas Service.

In the spirit of community and giving, the children are encouraged to participate in the charitable programs supported by Mount Zion, i.e. gathering food for the Food Bank, mittens for a mitten tree and items for 'We Care' bags.

 

Confirmation

Confirmation is an intentional learning opportunity for students in Grades 7 & 8. Participants explore and challenge one another on issues of faith and discipleship in their everyday lives. The curriculum rotates each year, focusing on Martin Luther's Small Catechism one year and Biblical Study & Church History in the other year. In addition to their classes, confirmation students are invited to serve the congregation in many ways: acolytes, lectors, crucifers, Communion assistants, and Assisting ministers.

Confirmation Camp

Confirmation Camp is a week-long education program for youth ages 12-14. Our youth gather at camp on Lake  Huron during the last week of August each summer for fellowship, learning and worship opportunities in the Lutheran Faith. We join with ten other local congregations for this week-long event.

The Post-confirmation Youth (or PCY'rs) gather semi-regularly for various opportunities. Youth are invited to engage in the congregation's life through worship, fellowship, spiritual retreats, and fundraising opportunities.

 

Book Club and other discussion groups

Our Health Council and Justice through Service Committees organize occasional lectures and book club discussions. Check the event calendar.
