ZION'S EVANGELICAL CHURCH. Zion's Evangelical Church was established in Dubuque prior to 1876. In 1916 as it was about to take part in the Sunday School Parade, the Dubuque Telegraph-Herald described the church as proving that "bigness is not all of life."

The school offered a home department, a cradle roll, and adult, intermediate and primary departments. An "open door policy" was in effect to all with no other church affiliation. (1)
