Faith Lutheran Church of Shelton
About Us
We have a saying around Faith Lutheran Church: “Welcome Home!” We say welcome home because this is a church of the God who welcomes all.
There’s a story in the Bible that Jesus tells about a father with two sons. The younger son makes off with half of the family fortune and spends it all on “wild living.” Tired, broke, and broken, he heads back home with his tail between his legs, ready to eat crow and take his lumps.
But here’s the thing: Jesus says that “while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.” And the point of the story, Jesus says, is that God is like that father.
We say welcome home to one another because each one of us is the wayward child who has been welcomed home by a loving, gracious father. We say welcome home because we want you to experience the same transforming power and love of the God who created you, loves you, and has a purpose for your life. The Bible says that nothing can separate you from the love of God in Christ Jesus. This church is made up of people who cling to this promise with everything we’ve got.
If you’ve been wandering a bit; feeling lost or out of place; if you’re broken or beat up: Faith Lutheran wants to welcome you home.
May God bless you and have a good day!
