Calendar - Worship Services

Worship in person or online at 10:00 am Sundays The Sacrament of Holy Communion is celebrated at each Sunday worship service God gathers us together in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, the name into which we were baptized. He gathers us to receive His gifts—Himself, His name, His flesh and blood Son, His Word of pardon and peace, His life, His grace and Spirit. In the Divine Service He distributes these gifts to us. Here we receive the forgiveness of sins, life, and salvation Christ won for us on the cross. God calls and gathers us into His holy Christian church where we have communion with Him and all His saints in heaven and on earth. Heaven and earth intersect in the Divine Service.

What we Believe

Our teachings can be summed up in the words of the Apostle's Creed

I BELIEVE IN GOD, THE FATHER ALMIGHTY , maker of heaven and earth.

AND IN JESUS CHRIST , His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried. He descended into hell. The third day He rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty. From thence He will come to judge the living and the dead.

I BELIEVE IN THE HOLY SPIRIT , the holy Christian Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. AMEN.

Dead but now alive? No way!

Those who believe in and follow the man named Jesus of Nazareth have, since the beginning of April, been celebrating the pinnacle of his 33 years of life. That pinnacle was his death upon a Roman cross and three days later, just as he said he would, he rose from the dead.

Most in the world say "dream on" and it might very well look as such if it were only his followers and eye witnesses who claimed these events. But such is not the case and nor has it been for the past 2000 yrs.

Along with those who loved him were those who hated him and hatched a plan to hand him over to the Roman governor to be crucified. We learn what happened to him not only from his eye witness followers who wrote these accounts for all in the Bible, but also from his enemies who wrote of his death and also of the fact that he was seen alive by many after his coming back to life. And it gets even more interesting because Roman historians also wrote of the man named Jesus of Nazareth having been ...

Family & Children

Jesus' Little Lambs

Families are important and we want to support all those faithful parents who are raising their children for the Lord during difficult times.

Our children's education program includes Sunday School during the school year. Children join us for the early part of the worship service and are then dismissed following the Children's Message. Children return to their families after the sermon, and in time to join their families during Holy Communion.

We also have several special family events during the year including our School's Out Carnival in June. See details below.
