Our Services

What are services like?
Traditional Lutheran liturgy with some contemporary hymns. It has a laid-back feel even though it is done in a "traditional" style. It works!

What is the community like?
Friendly. Non-judgmental. From all corners of the world.

What if I'm not a Christian?
You'll be welcomed and loved. It may take a bit to figure out what's going on if you've never been to any service before, but simply put--We worship using liturgy of the ancient church set to music that is a blend of traditional and contemporary worship. Worship is about praise to God for God's mercy and love for all. Pastor's sermons ("talks") are down-to-earth, connecting scripture with life. Feel free to ask questions to him or any others around after worship during coffee time.
