| Adult Discipleship at Zion We believe we are all called to be disciples – followers of Jesus. As we become more spiritually mature, we move from simply believing doctrines about God into a relationship with God that transforms the way we live and think in every aspect of our life, expecting God’s transforming power in our lives. Adult Discipleship Ministries provide a wide array of opportunities for adults to learn about and mature in their faith. All of the ministries are open to all who are interested. For more information please contact Christine Carlsen, 734-994-4455, ext. 15, ccarlsen@zlc-aa.org.
For those considering membership at Zion, we offer orientation classes quarterly; January, April, July, and October. Check with the church office or Pastor Mike for exact dates. Orientation requires attendance at three classes each about an hour and a half in length where you will be introduced to Lutheran beliefs, the ministry opportunities available to you at Zion, the staff at Zion, and last but not least, encouraged to enter into relationship with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and each other through worship, education and service. Lutherans entering by transfer of membership will also be encouraged to attend these orientation sessions. At both 9:45 and 11:00 a.m. on Sundays and sometimes in the evening (on Sundays and during the week), adult classes are offered, with topics ranging from Bible study to family issues. Most classes are 6-weeks long, so several topics are covered each year. The learning environment seeks to encourage a sense of community, intellectual challenge, deepened faith and changed lives. Even if you can’t attend all sessions of a class, you are welcome to come when you can. Visit the Adult Classes page. One of the most powerful ways to develop spiritual maturity along with deep friendship with other Christians is participation in a small group. Zion offers many small groups, and new ones form throughout the year. Groups meet regularly to study the Bible, pray together, share their lives with each other, and offer service to others. Contact Christine Carlsen for more information.
Each year Zion offers a variety of retreat experiences – for
men, women, couples, families – varying in length from ½
day to 2 ½ days. Retreats provide special settings for “getting
away from it all” to concentrate on one’s faith and
relationships. The Prayer Ministry hosts prayer meetings and encourages members to surround Zion's leadership and projects in prayer.
