Zion Lutheran Church, ELCA Worcester Campus of Grace Ministries Building upon Our First Century of Witness

Our Work

God is good, all the time! And all the time, God is good!

When I see OVERFLOWING donation bins at the church, and see the busy overnight hosts and meal stewards for our IHN guests during the two weeks of hosting, I know that "God is good, all the time!", and working through us as Christ's hands and feet when we open our hearts and the let the Spirit move us!

All the time, God is good!

AFGHANISTAN REFUGEE FAMILY RESETTLEMENT

Neighborhood Support Teams have been formed for our Central MA area; each NST will help a family for a year as they acclimate to our area. GRACE has joined one of the first three, in league with Bethlehem Lutheran in Sturbridge, Zion Lutheran-Oxford/Reconciliation Episcopal-Webster, Emanuel Lutheran-Worcester and Salem Covenant-Worcester.

You may help support the family we will welcome sometime in the January/February 2022 timeframe with your menoatry donations via the QR code below.

Our NST is responsible for raising upwards of $32K for the year we provide sponsorship.

Twice a year our congregations provide over-night and late afternoon staffing for the IHN home on June Street in Worcester. Volunteers sign-up to help, and we take donations of gift cards to area supermarkets and pharmacies to help stock the pantry and bathrooms for the needs of the families during our weeks of commitment.

Making Christ known!

That's the call for every community of believers and is no different here in Greendale. With biblically-centered preaching, worship with a heart, and believers ready to take their renewed witness into the world, Zion heeds the call of DOING WHAT MATTERS in the world seriously today and everyday!

Our community works diligently to meet the ever-changing needs of the area in which we live.

Zion provides guidance to those affected by financial crises, homelessness, and directly supports area food pantries, women's shelter, veteran's shelter, inter-faith family homeless program and various other ministries.

We have been involved in many projects over the years, and we invite you to learn by example how you can help your immediate & worldwide community together through our faith family of Grace Ministries!
