Smart Start at Zion

Hey friends! How is everyone doing?! It's been a wonderful May and we can't wait to see you this summer. In the meantime, keep singing! Visit "Songs to Sing and Play with Miss Cara" for some fun songs to try in your home with your children. https://www.youtube.com//playlists

To all our amazing, generous, hard-working and selfless mamas of Smart Start:

We thank God for you and the gifts you bring your children every day. You are the true backbone of our community whether you realize the immensity of your work or not. You are loved and seen, and we love supporting you and your loved ones.
God’s blessings to you always❤️
In true Ms. Cara fashion, I had to put it to prose! Happy Mother’s Day!

Dear Smart Start friends, supporting this would go a long way as we seek to improve our spaces for Smart Start and our expanding early childhood development offerings. Come see some friends and feed the kids with some kid friendly pancakes!

Zion’s services are at 8:00 or 10:30 am tomorrow and you are welcome for brunch!
Happy Easter!

Everything comes down to this:

Did Jesus rise… or not?

He did.
And it changes everything.

Join us this Easter at Zion:

8:00 AM Worship
9:00 AM Breakfast & Egg Hunt
10:30 AM Worship

Bring your family. Invite a friend.

Tomorrow at 10 am!

Tomorrow is Palm Sunday!
At 9:30 a.m. Mrs. Cara is presenting about Smart Start in the Zion fellowship hall to anyone in the community or at Zion that is curious about what we do and why we do it.
At 10:30 a.m. We love celebrating at Zion with a church service and children's procession of palms at the beginning. You all are more than welcome! Enjoy this hymn that we sing every year on this day!
We will see you then on Monday, March 30th at 10 a.m. for our final Smart Start class of the session.

If you do not have a church you call home, we’d love to see you at Zion Lutheran Church as Holy Week begins this Sunday with the children leading the palm procession to begin the service.

Holy Week is almost here.

This week, we walk with Jesus—from the cross… to the empty tomb.

Join us at Zion for Holy Week worship:

🌿 Palm Sunday – 10:30 AM
🍷 Maundy Thursday – 6:30 PM
✝️ Good Friday – 6:30 PM
🌅 Easter Sunday – 8:00 & 10:30 AM
🐣 Breakfast & Egg Hunt – 9:00 AM

Come and see what God has done for you.

Start getting excited! Our Monday party to close out this fantastic session is almost here. We'll be having sensory bins and special Easter crafts and coloring for your little ones after the music class. We cannot wait to celebrate all these little ones have learned.

Come sing, dance, play, and craft!

Monday, March 30th at 10 a.m.
All are welcome.
