Many people think of worship as something that we do. We believe that worship begins with what God, in grace, does for us. In His house, He forgives us, He speaks to us His Word of truth, and He renews and refreshes us to live for Him. We then respond to what He

does for us with our prayers and praises. While most people would call our worship services “traditional,” on the 2nd and 3rd Sundays of the month we sprinkle in songs with different instrumentation and a more modern sound. But whether it is during the sermon, prayers, or songs, we always strive to serve you with Jesus, His gifts, and the truth of His Word. If you visit Zion, you will find that we are a friendly, fairly traditional bunch of folks who love the Lord and seek to love one another and our community. Without any question, you are welcome here! Most importantly, you are welcome to join us as we gather around God’s grace that is found in Jesus Christ. “Grace” means “gift.” At Zion, we all come as broken people living in a broken world to receive the gift, the grace, that we need most. In fact, our church’s tagline is “gathering in grace.” We sincerely and warmly invite you to come and join us as we gather in the grace of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Serving Alexandria and the surrounding area for over 125 years!
