Zion Ev. Lutheran Church of Sanborn - WELS

Zion Ev. Lutheran Church of Sanborn - WELS We are a family under Christ who seeks to share the Gospel with souls in Sanborn, MN and the surrounding area. The fruit of a Christian is a life of love.

Sunday Worship Services are currently being held at 10:30 a.m. Through faith, we are connected to Christ as a branch is connected to a grape vine - the result of being connected to Jesus is that we will now bear fruit. Out of thanks for God's love, we now seek to love our fellow man by sharing God's message of love with him. As believers we seek to show love not only in what we say, but also in what we do.

Lord of grace and glory, Americans remember their fallen on the holiday we call Memorial Day. Help us to remember the cause of war, the horrors of war, and, at some times, the need for war. Help us explain to a new generation the reality of evil, the need for sacrifice, but above all, the need for you. Without you, any victory is fleeting, and any healing is short-lived. Without you, America is at the mercy of its enemiesβ€”and its enemies do not possess mercy. Therefore, shower us with your mercy from on high that we may never forget those who died for our freedom, and the One who died to make us free forever. Amen.

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ This Memorial Day, we thank God for blessing our country with men and women willing to serve and protect.

Pastors forming pastors to proclaim God’s praise.

May 20–22, Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary will hold a series of graduation events celebrating students who have prepared for lives of service in gospel ministry.

These days culminate in the assignment of future pastors into congregations and ministries where they will proclaim God’s Word, shepherd his people, and serve Christ’s church for years to come.

We give thanks for the professors, families, congregations, and fellow students who have encouraged and supported them along the way, and we pray God blesses these future pastors as they begin their ministry.

For more details about the 2026 Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary Call Day and graduation events, visit: https://hubs.li/Q04h38nS0. All events will be live streamed and can be viewed at the provided link or on WLS' YouTube channel: .

CALL UPDATE - The Assignment Committee of the WELS met this week to assign Seminary graduates to congregations that have requested a pastor. There were a limited number of graduates available to be assigned, and the committee was unable to fill Zion's assignment request. Five graduates were assigned to the Minnesota District, and six Minnesota congregations had unfilled requests.

We will likely meet soon to call a pastor. We trust that God blesses us through this process and will lead a full-time shepherd to us according to his will and in his timing.

Pray for those graduates who will soon begin their ministries. And continue to pray that God would lead people to consider studying for the ministry so that generations to come will have faithful leaders.
