Bernie served on Church Council in the seventies and they both taught Sunday School for a brief while.  They left Zion for a brief time but returned in 2001.  They presently help at the Faith Kitchen which they fine very rewarding.

Bruce & Lynn Fuller

Bruce and Lynn Fuller became members of Zion Lutheran Church in the 1980s. Bruce and Lynn moved to Whitehouse Station in 1983 and still live in their original home to this day. Both of their children, Trevor and Blair, were baptized at Zion and attended Sunday School, Vacation Bible School, and youth group activities. Lynn enjoys being a part of the Altar Guild for the church and volunteering from time to time. She loves the friendly, small-town vibe received from the church members and her favorite part of Sunday's worship is Pastor Summer's sermons. Bruce is a Fire Safety Official for Hunterdon County and Lynn is currently a nanny for two sweet children, ages five and seven. They both love to garden and do projects around the house. Their children are both currently living in New Jersey after attending college.  Trevor works for Johnson & Johnson in supply chain management and Blair is a Registered Nurse at Robert Wood Johnson in the Emergency Department. Blair married her high school sweetheart, Andrew Saunders, with Pastor Summer as the officiant, of course!
