For over 50 years, Zion Lutheran Church has been a place where worship, music, and community gather together under the trees on the northwest side of Gainesville. For the last decade, Zion has invited children to learn a song — a song that connects them with their families, their world, and with Christ.

Generations have worshiped and sung here for more than five decades, and now, we invite you to join us for a special evening of encouragement, purpose, and entertainment.

Harmonizing Joy and Generosity: Building on the Song will be an inspiring night filled with:

• A plated dinner and dessert – catered by Harry’s Seafood
• Musical performances by children in our programs
• Raffles and presentations
• Opportunities to support our new worship and community spaces

Date & Time:
Saturday, November 15, 2025
5:00 – 8:00 p.m.

Location:
The Abbey at Blackadder Brewing Company
