Salem Evangelical Lutheran Church

What are services like?
Expect to be greeted with a warm welcome from our members, even if it's your first time. Expect vibrant, high quality traditional music. Expect a style of worship with ancient roots, that appeals to all five senses. Expect weekly Communion, the meal of God's forgiveness. Expect to hear thoughtful, grace-filled preaching, that proclaims what God has done for us. Expect to hear the Good News: God loves us, forgives us, and invites us to live our lives in the light of Christ!

What is the community like?
Salem places a high priority on welcoming visitors, including people of every age, race, class, ethnicity, sexual orientation and walk of life in our ministry. We welcome children in worship, but we also have a nursery available. We offer education from preschool through adulthood in between services. We also believe we are called by God to recognize and supporting God's work outside our walls. We provide many ways to respond compassionately to hunger, homelessness, disease, pollution, and poverty, among other things. We are a community marked by God's grace, determined to share it with others.

What if I'm not a Christian?
As Lutherans, we believe faith is a gift from God, not a human decision, nor a requirement before you come through the door. We do not come together because we have it all figured out, but rather because we need guidance, healing, forgiveness. Whether you're born and raised Lutheran, you come to us from another part of the Church, you've been away from church a while, or even if you've never been to church before and just have some questions, we encourage you to come see what God is up to at Salem.
