What We Believe

• We believe the Bible to be Holy and without error. We preach Jesus Christ crucified for our sins and raised again on the third day. We preach that Jesus is the only name under Heaven given to man whereby he must be saved.
• With the universal Christian Church, The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod teaches and responds to the love of the Triune God: The Father, creator of all that exists; Jesus Christ, the Son, who became human to suffer and die for the sins of all human beings and to rise to life again in the ultimate victory over death and Satan; and the Holy Spirit, who creates faith through God’s Word and Sacraments. The three persons of the Trinity are coequal and coeternal, one God. 
• Lutheran services follow a structure called a liturgy and in addition to singing, there is also some chanting. After each service, we have announcements about the church. Our bulletins include a full page of prayers to friends and loved ones. Many people participate in the services including scripture readers, prayer readers, ushers and elders. 
• Our worship includes two sacraments - Holy Baptism and Holy Communion. The sacraments hold a significant place in Lutheran theology. They are regarded as sacred rituals that symbolize and convey God’s grace to believers. Baptism and communion are the two sacraments recognized by Lutheran churches, and they hold great importance in the life of a Lutheran believer. Communion is every Sunday; Baptism is held when requested.
