Objective of the Board     The basic objectives of this board are to insure the financial stability of the congregation and its work, initiate programs for the development of good stewardship attitudes in the members of the congregation in regard to treasure, time and talents, and to encourage dedicated, proportionate, first-fruits giving, and to provide for the training and utilization of members of the congregation for work of Christ's Kingdom.

Stewardship of Treasures   The Bible teaches that first-fruit giving will be a blessing to the giver. The Board of Stewardship will be working through the LCMS "Congregational Stewardship Workbook" so that they can better internalize this truth and can then help others in the congregation do the same.
There are many bible verses that address the subject of stewardship.
Some examples are: Gen. 2:15, Ps. 24:1, John 13:34-35, Matt. 25-31-46, Phil 3:12-14.

Stewardship of Time    Zion offers many opportunities to serve others. Some positions available are Ushers, Alter Guild, Board member, Live Nativity member, and many others. Whether you want to be a workerbee, you are always welcome.

Stewardship of Talents   Zion has many established areas for each person to use their talents as a gift to the Lord. There is an established choir ministry available for all ages. The Handbell choir can always use new members and would love to expand. Special music talent such as solos, duets, and musical instruments are always a special addition to any event. If your area of expertise is not established at Zion, new ideas for ministry are always needed.
