At Zion Lutheran Church, we offer a safe space for cross-country bicyclists who are in need of rest.  We offer A/C, two beds, refrigerator, a full service kitchen and a private shower.  All of our amenities are designed for your comfort and pleasure along your route.  Whether your ride  is across Kansas or  coast to coast, your hospitality stay with us is welcome.  

North Side Entrance Door

 

This is the door to an Oasis for cross country cyclists.  Your home away from home for a night or more. (North end of Bldg.)  Keys to the door are available at Harley's Bicycle Shop at 7th and Main Street---about 5 blocks away.  After hours see instructions on South church door OR If you are in-bound on a Sunday or Monday you may call ahead to 1-620-899-4095 for instructions.

Beds Available

How long since you've crashed in a real bed?  Linens and pillow are provided.  When you leave strip the sheets and pillow cases and toss them in a basket.  The church ladies will do the washing.  Sleep, take a nap, watch TV---snoring optional of course.  The TV receives numerous local channels and has a built in DVD player with some DVD's available.  Wi-Fi address is posted.

Everything in the Hostel Fridge or on the Ride Table is yours unless a rider has put his name on it. Zion has experienced riders who stock much of what we believe your body may need and those refreshing things we think you may enjoy.  If you know of something you believe may improve this amenity  please leave us a note.              

                                                P.S. Beer is OK.

Private Shower

 It's not fancy but this shower has replaced a lot of sweat and fatigue with a happy body.  Soap, shampoo, and towels are available for you to use. Wow!! It's going to feel soo good. Just toss the used towel in a basket, lay back and re-generate.  Laundry is available in the adjacent room or for larger loads there is a LAUNDRY MAT just an easy 7 blocks away at 5th and Adams.

Washer - Dryer

Private Shower

Zion's bicycle Hostel has added a cloths washer and dryer for our cyclists.   It is located in the utility room adjacent to Your Shower.  What a great way to start your cycling day; a refreshing shower after a good nights sleep in an air conditioned room in a real bed.  Maybe a hot breakfast and a clean fresh chamois.....looks like maybe a hundred mile day may be  waiting??  Ride safe.

  Hope you'll sign our guest cyclist register. It's not required of course but the congregation likes to know who our cycling guests are and where they are from. Leave us a note if you feel inclined. We've had cyclists from many foreign countries and most states since our Hostel began in the 1970's.

Welcome to Zion Lutheran Church.

ARE YOU HERE FOR THE WEEK-END

Church Service

We welcome you to join our Sunday service, where we come together to worship, pray and hear a message from our pastor and learn of God's word. Our service begins at 10:00am and lasts approximately 1 hour.    Communion is served to anyone who prepares their heart and wishes to join us at the Lord's Table.  Our services are open to everyone, and we welcome you to come as you are.   We look forward to seeing you there!  

Where to Eat

We have an incredible variety of restaurants here from establishments that dish up local favorites to cozy coffee shops, and steakhouses.  

Fast Food or Sit-Down we have a lot of wonderful places to chose from in Hutchinson.   Visit: Wanderlog.com  for a list of our best eating places and a map to guide you.  Or, you can shop the local grocery, use our kitchen and make that one thing you have been craving for so long.  With bellies full, just kick back, relax and enjoy.

Attractions: Must See Things While You Are Here

If you have time Hutchinson has a pair of must see attractions.  They are:

  1. Cosmosphere:   The largest collection of space artifacts outside of the Smithsonian.  This is one you will never forget.
  2. Strataca:   Travel 650ft into an active salt mine.  A cool subterranean world formed during the time of the Permian sea long ago.   (250 - 290 million years ago)

                   A DEPARTING PRAYER FROM YOUR FRIENDS AT ZION

Heavenly Father, on this journey let Love fill my lungs, Joy fill my heart, Faith be the wind on my face, let peace be my Shield, Hope flood my Mind and Grace be my strength. May God bless my bike and all who travel upon them, may my Gears be Smooth, my Brakes be Strong, my Tires Puncture Proof and Blessed with a Seat of Comfort, may each segment of my journey be Fruitful and other road users Hospitable. I humbly ask You to Bless me with continued Strength, Wisdom and Resources as I continue, a Halo to Guide and protect me from every Danger; and bring me in Safety to my journey's end; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
