What We Believe and Teach
We believe that God's grace welcomes you, no matter who you are or where you come from. We believe that Jesus Christ is the true Savior of all people. By his perfect life, innocent death, and triumphant resurrection he saves all lost sinners even without our help. Jesus Christ makes us special people, right with God and ready for life! We learn this from the Bible, God's perfect message of grace and guidance for us.

Whether you are a seasoned Lutheran, a curious observer with little religious background, or a spiritual person looking to return to the church, we invite you to explore our beliefs further. If you are looking for a structured outline of our beliefs, the best way for us to help you is personal interaction between you and one of our pastors. E-mail them with your questions, or plan to attend one of our Bible Information Class series that are held several times per year. These classes are designed for nonmembers to explore, without obligation, what we believe as found in the Bible.
