Who We Are

Concordia is a member of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). We have a large military presence due to our proximity to Fort Drum. We are blessed with many young families as well as long-term members. As faithful disciples of Jesus we follow not only Him, but His ways and His words.

Our Services

What are services like?
Our services follow the Evangelical Lutheran Worship hymnal. While we sing many traditional hymns, we also sing newly written hymns with contemporary lyrics set to familiar music. Every service has a children's lesson with Hoppy the Frog. Throughout the year special orders of worship are used, such as on Earth Day and Veterans Day.

What is the community like?
We are a progressive, forward-looking congregation. Concordia is a very welcoming place, as we have a continual influx and farewell of military members.

What if I'm not a Christian?
All are welcome!
