Zion's Commitment

Zion Lutheran Church is proud to support the Williamsport Food Bank through ongoing food collection, financial assistance, and seasonal outreach projects. We are one of several churches in the Williamsport Area Ministerium actively involved in this vital local ministry.

Holiday Outreach

Every Christmas, Zion and fellow churches in the Ministerium provide turkeys and holiday food boxes to families served by the Food Bank.
