 Our Mission
We are People of God who Gather to Worship, Gather to Worship In response to God’s call and the saving grace of Jesus Christ, we are a community that gathers to glorify God. Grow in Faith We build and renew our understanding of the teachings of Jesus and we strive to learn more about God’s grace through his word and how it touches our daily lives. We provide diverse learning opportunities to motivate ourselves and inspire others to practice our faith in daily living. According to the promise made at baptism, we instruct and nurture our younger members in the Christian faith. Give to Others Recognizing that all we possess is from God's loving hand and in faithful response to God’s grace, led by the Holy Spirit, we challenge ourselves, individually and as a community, to grow in sharing our God- given talents, time and resources. As disciples of Christ, we serve our members in need. With God’s guidance, we serve the local community directly and through partnerships, and serve the world through missions of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). “… by my own understanding or strength I cannot believe in Jesus Christ my Lord or come to him, but instead the Holy Spirit has called me through the gospel, enlightened me with his gifts, sanctified me, and kept me in the true faith, just as he calls, gathers, enlightens, and sanctifies the whole Christian church on earth and keeps it with Jesus Christ in the one common, true faith.” - Martin Luther |
