Seniors

WE'RE ALL YOUNG AT HEART NO MATTER WHAT THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE SAYS! Our seniors meet once a month, on the second Friday, for a potluck lunch, maybe some fun and games ... and a time of prayer and devotion. In June we will be gathering at a farm owned by one of our members. Contact the church office if you need more details. We are not checking ID at the door, so everyone is welcome to join in this time of fellowship with those who have experienced life with all its ups and down. For more information, contact the church office at [email protected]

Blessed on Purpose - What You Can Do

There are many needs in the world. Even our small response, given in love, can make a difference!

You can bless your neighbors in Chilliwack

Through our partnership with other organizations in downtown Chilliwack you can make life a little easier for struggling individuals and families.

Our Lenten Servant Project this year will be to support the work of the Community Angels Food and Hosuing Support Society, an organization dedicated to addressing the challenges of food and housing insecurity among seniors in the Chilliwack area. Specifically, our efforts will be focused on collecting protein drinks such as Ensure or Boost which will be given to vulnerable seniors through the Community Angels program. You may drop off your gifts anytime the church is open. You may also support this project by donating to our Local Relief Fund and we will purchase the beverages on your behalf.

You can bless those who long to hear the Good News

Our History

In 1923, when the population of Chilliwack numbered about 3,000, Rev. V.L. Meyer began work here. Traveling from Vancouver, he brought the Word of God to a little group of Lutherans ... just four people to start. By the end of the year, the number had grown to 20 people and services were conducted in the member's homes. In 1930, Candidate A.H. Haake took over the work in the valley. In addition to Chilliwack, Rev. Haake served Lulu Island, New Westminister, Crescent, Cloverdale, South Sumas, Bradner and Hope. Living in New Westminster, he became the founder of Mt. Calvary Church in that city.
