We Proudly Announce a Special Christmas Concert by the famed 35-Member Árpád Darázs Singers Thursday, December 17, 7:00p.m. in the Zion Sanctuary
(Concert is free—love offering will be requested)
The Árpád Darázs Singers was formed in 1987 in memory of Dr. Árpád
Darázs. A Hungarian immigrant, Dr. Darázs was a member of the University
of South Carolina faculty and the founder of the USC Concert Choir (1966)
and its director until his death in 1986. As a tribute, several University music alumni formed The Árpád Darázs Singers to honor Dr. Darázs and to continue the musical excellence he had established. The Árpád Darázs Singers is a unique choral ensemble in the Midlands – a group of talented musicians who create a superior blend of mixed voices performing a varied repertoire of classical and contemporary works: sacred, secular, accompanied, and a capella. Concerts often include music by Hungarian composers to honor Dr. Darázs’ homeland.

Sunday Nite LIVE!
Every Sunday at 6:30 p.m.
(November 29, December 6, 13 and 20 Sunday Nite LIVE! will be Advent Worship Services.)
Zion Family Life Center Gymnasium
Join us in the Family Life Center every Sunday at 6:30 p.m., for a different kind of worship service! This is a contextual worship service based on the style of worship that Martin Luther encouraged–music and language easily sung and understood by everyone. Members of Zion’s congregation and guest musicians will accompany the singing with acoustic instruments, and our liturgy will be easy to follow. Come with us to journey back to the “roots of Lutheranism!”
Attend our Sunday Nite LIVE! and we know you’ll want to experience the joy every Sunday evening–bring a friend, relative or co-worker!
