History
The Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church was erected 1892 for the Zion Evangelical Church congregation. The congregation used the church until 1949, when they moved to a new church structure located on US Highway 131. In 1951, the Petoskey Mennonite Church purchased the building; the congregation later changed its name to the Hilltop Mennonite Fellowship. The Mennonite congregation used the building until 2015, when the congregation closed. The building was then purchased by the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Petoskey, who began using it in 2016.
