LENTEN MID-WEEK SERVICES  @   7:00 PM ON WEDNESDAYS...Please join us again this year as our midweek Lenten services will center around the theme of “Honest Repentance.” Repentance starts with being honest before God and ourselves about who we are. When it comes to sin, everyone has a natural impulse to hide, but repentance means finding the courage to be honest. It also means having faith in the promise of forgiveness. But being honest about faith means recognizing that faith is contested on many sides not only by society, but by our own experiences, and sometimes even by the actions of God himself. Finally, repentance means becoming more human, not less. Because our thoughts, desires, and actions are so linked with sin, it is easy to view repentance as fighting against our humanity as if holiness meant trying to stifle as many of our natural human impulses as possible. But honest repentance recognizes that sin is the thing that stifles our humanity, while repentance results in our natural impulses functioning more as God designed them.

Pastor's Welcome Message

We are so glad you are looking at our website!  We would love to have you visit and check us out in person.  If you do not have a church home or would like to learn more about Christianity and the teachings of  our Savior Jesus Christ, we invite you to worship with us and become a part of our family.  

Please don't hesitate to get in touch with me through email if you have any questions about our beliefs or service times.  As Lutheran Christians, we take God at His Word as He has spoken to us in the Bible.  If God says it, we simply trust and believe it's true! 

Pastor Bill Hillyer
