A family-friendly congregation We are a congregation of 350 confirmed, communing members that builds its life in the Ministry of Word and Sacrament. From there, we reach out to our community and our members with ministries of education, fellowship and service. Pastor Cindy White’s greetings.
Saturday 5:30 pm; Sunday 9 am Saturday worship is a relaxed service with a blend of contemporary and traditional music. Communion is offered the fourth Saturday of the month. A food & fellowship time follows the service. Sunday worship is a traditional Lutheran service with Communtion offered each week. Both services are online.
Building positive relationships A church is not a building. It is people coming together to worship and serve God. We believe in building relation-ships, helping our members connect with God and with each other. You can connect with us here and with our latest Facebook and YouTube posts,
