Join Us For Worship
Sundays at 10:00 AM
Nursery available
Family worship activities are the Third Sunday of the month during and after worship.
Worship is the foundation of everything we do.
For Lutherans, worship stands at the center of our life of faith. Bringing our joys and tears, hopes, and fears, we receive Christ through God's word, water, bread, wine, and prayer. We are strengthened in our life together as Christians. We are sent into the world in hopeful expectation that we will encounter Christ as we live our daily lives and bless the neighbors we encounter.
Who Can Come To Worship?
EVERYONE!
Jesus didn't turn people away. Neither do we.
Sinners, seekers, and doubters are all welcome in God's house.
We celebrate the inclusion of children in worship.Children learn to worship by worshipping.
Activity bags are available for use and are hanging in the narthex.
We also acknowledge that for some of our littlest ones they need a place to spread out and play.
We have a nursery coordinator who can take children up to 4 years old in the narthex and bring them back in for communion.
How We Worship
1. Gathering
We begin our worship by confessing our sins and receiving the forgiveness given to us in baptism. Freed from our sins, we are free to worship Christ knowing that Christ's cross reconciles us to God and one another.
3. Meal
We bring forth our tithes and offerings together with the bread and wine Jesus serves at his table. In Holy Communion, we trust that Christ feeds us with his body and blood. In this Communion, we are united with Christ and Christians of every time and place. We look forward to when we will feast with Christ and all the saints when he comes again.
2. Word
Christ feeds our faith through readings of Scripture, the proclaimed Word (sermon), and music.
4. Sending
Having been fed by the Word and the Meal, Christ sends us into the world to serve God in our daily lives.
Our Faith
We are a part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA)
When Lutherans talk about faith, we are talking about the relationship God’s Holy Spirit creates with us. It’s a relationship where God’s promise of steadfast love and mercy in Jesus opens us to a life of bold trust in God and joyful, generous service to everyone we know and meet in daily life.
The Confession of Faith of our Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) identifies the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments as the basis for our teaching. This Confession of Faith is more than just words in an official document. Every Sunday in worship ELCA congregations hear God’s word from the Scriptures, pray as Jesus taught and come to the Lord’s Table expecting to receive the mercies that God promises.
Martin Luther was exuberant when he described the freedom of
“a living, daring confidence in God’s grace, so sure and certain that believers would stake their lives on it a thousand times.”
He once wrote,
“Oh, it is a living, busy, active, mighty thing, this faith. It is impossible for it not to be doing good things unceasingly.”
Faith convictions expressed as statements of belief flow from this confident trust in God. Lutherans share in the faith expressed in the Apostles’, Nicene, and Athanasian Creeds. In them, we confess the Triune God and we proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
At the same time faith does not close our minds to the world and our hearts to others. We listen to the witness of others and we watch for the ways God is active in the world around us. Faith opens a place for engaging others in conversation, for seeking the truth, for asking questions and speaking love in word and deed.
Faith is a full life, liberated for a living, daring confidence in God’s grace
