About House of Zion:

Pastor Polo and Marta Garcia began the ministry, of House of Zion, in 1981 as an outreach to the migrant farm workers in Woodburn, Oregon. Having attended Portland Bible College and living in the greater Portland Metropolitan area, the Garcias saw a major need in the Northern Marion County region. Many families were living without shelter, adequate food, clothing and medical attention, even during adverse winter weather conditions.

The Garcias began House of Zion as an extension of their lives, opening their own home to begin providing shelter and food for those without.

This ministry has grown, since those days, in providing shelter, food, clothing, counseling, ministerial ministries, agency referral , migrant farm distribution to labor camps, a church, educational center for youth, and a mediation for farm workers program.
