Worship

Welcome! Thank you for joining us for worship today. In our services we gather before our almighty God to receive his gifts and to offer him our worship and praise. Through God’s powerful Word and Sacraments he renews our faith and strengthens us to serve in joy.

Is the church more of a country club or a hospital? Is a Christian community full of people who have it all together or is the family of God an assembly of individuals who are flawed and broken ? God’s Word tells us everyone within the church was at one point deeply lost. How were we “found”? Amazing grace! God sought us out, called us to faith, adopted us into his family, and welcomed us home into his Church. There is no perfect Christian, but we have hope because there is a perfect Christ! Our salvation in him is an accomplished fact. But our daily life as a Christian often takes two steps forward and then at least one step back.

This is another reason we need Christian community! As a loving Christian family, we love one another, forgive one another, proclaim God’s forgiveness to one another. And when a brother or sister drifts backs towards lostness, we give chase, striving to bring them back home.
