Zion Episcopal Church

About this church

Zion Episcopal Church celebrates its Sunday service in person and live on Facebook and YouTube at 10 a.m. at 12 Satterlee Place in Wappingers Falls. The online worship page provides the bulletin, prior services, and links to both the Episcopal Hymnal 1982 and Lift Every Voice and Sing. The congregation’s weekly newsletter identifies the celebrant and special observances, so visitors can see whether a feast day, guest priest, or ministry emphasis will shape that Sunday’s Holy Eucharist.

Zion’s local roots reach to 1820, when Joanna Mesier began a Sunday School beneath a tree overlooking Wappingers Creek. The class moved into a corn barn, and the first official Episcopal service followed in 1833; the church was dedicated in 1836. Current community service includes a food pantry behind the rectory, open from noon to 2 p.m. and 6 to 7 Wednesday for local families and individuals. Donations can be left in designated porch boxes, brought to Sunday worship, or given online. A first-time worshiper can attend onsite or use either livestream platform, with the downloadable bulletin making the liturgy easier to follow remotely. Anyone seeking pantry assistance should use the Wednesday windows rather than the Sunday service time, while contributors can review current requested items and holiday distributions before delivering food.
