Who We Are

Saved by grace through faith!

Mission Statement: We are people of faith believing in the presence of God in Word and Sacrament, striving to support one another in the living of our Christian faith that all may know God's love and Grace.

We are a group of hard-working believers in faith and the grace of God. We believe strongly in the community and work to support a variety of groups including youth groups and the local Savage Sunrise Manor.

FLC in Savage is yoked to Grace Lutheran Church of Skaar, ND. Services at Grace are on the 2nd (potluck meal following church) and 4th Sunday of each month at 11:30 AM with most services at the Squaw Gap Community Hall. Weather permitting, we meet at the church site out on a beautiful prairie.

What to Expect

What are services like?
We use the older Lutheran Book of Worship with occasional songs from the With One Voice hymnal. Services are somewhat casual as we are all sinners just trying to do the right thing.

What is the community like?
The community is made up of a great group of hard-working people who would best be described as the 'salt-of-the-earth'.

What if I'm not a Christian?
Everyone is welcome at First Lutheran Church and Grace Lutheran Church! Pastor Tim is available and happy to meet with anyone of any denomination.

    This is the church I grew up with and had been a member for years before moving away following a carrier path. My parents both remained members until their passings.
  • Tim
    The people! Everyone has been so welcoming and friendly in my time here. It's a good thing that I love this church since I'm the minister! :-)
