The labor of compiling our centennial book was shared by
many, and, while a simple but sincere 'thank you' seems all too
inadequate, we offer our thank you to them knowing that it was a labor
of love on their parts - love for their fellow member of Zion, love
for their Church, and love for their Savior. We would especially like
to thank the members of the Centennial Committee who planned, wrote,
rewrote, and worked for several months: Don Bartsch, Lila Schmitz,
Lavon Bartsch, Walter Helm, Warren Beulke, Albert Hasz, Armin Moh,
Caroline Helm and Reverend Kevin Wenker. Our thanks also to Richard
Hillert for writing the early history of Zion and to Adelia Helm for
her labors in writing the later history and in helping to compile this
book. Ray and Viola Keuer searched out and listed the Baptisms and
Confirmations - thank you. And to all who contributed pictures or
information from the past, to the Pastors who returned to help us
celebrate - we offer our warmest thanks and gratitude.
As with all of man's works, there is the likelihood for making an error or leaving something out. We hope we have not, especially with the Baptisms and Confirmations (many of the records were old and hard to read), but if we have, please forgive our oversight. In our thanks, we should not forget the most important of all - thanks to our Triune God who established us, has preserved and kept us, and will guide us into the future.
