Membership at Zion 

One becomes a member by:

Holy Baptism  Baptism is offered regularly throughout the year, always in the presence of the worshipping community and Sunday mornings. Contact the church office by Friday afternoon (718) 981-3151.

While the Lutheran Church practices infant Baptism, we offer the same sacrament for adults. If you have never been baptized, you can become a member of the Christian church and this congregation by attending the New Member Class prior to being baptized.

Confirmation/Affirmation of Baptism  If you have been baptized but never confirmed in the Lutheran Church, you may join by attending the New Member Class.

Transfer of Membership  Persons belonging to another Lutheran congregation may wish to transfer their membership to Zion. After discussing your desire to join Zion with the pastor, you may call the church from which you wish your membership transferred and request the transfer to Zion.
