Sunday Worship
9:30 am
All are welcome!
Christ is at the center. And so when we worship, the focus is on Jesus Christ and the gifts he has given us — forgiveness of sins, life, and salvation. That good news fills all of our reading and speaking, our singing and our praying. And it turns us outward toward our neighbor.
We are part of the church, connected to Christians of all times and places. And so when we worship, we don’t look so much to how we can do our own thing, but how we can express that connection. In creative ways, we use the forms of worship that Christians have developed over the centuries. Our hymns include those that have fed believers for many years, and those we are learning from Christians in other parts of the world.
Every Sunday, with the whole church, we gather around God’s word and holy meal, from which we gain strength to be sent out in mission.
We have inherited particular insights from the Lutheran tradition. And so when we worship, we hear both God’s word of law, reminding us that all people fail to live up to their potential, and God’s liberating gospel, assuring us that no matter what, God still loves us. Our worship patterns, though shared with the wider church, have some wonderful Lutheran twists, including a renowned heritage of song.
