Welcome to First Lutheran Church! We are a welcoming community of people actively living out our faith in Jesus Christ. Our worship services share uplifting messages that are relevant to today's world, and offer an open and inviting atmosphere where adults and children are welcome and included. Through activities for people of all ages we experience God's love and grow in faith.
We invite you to join in worship this weekend - and in serving our neighbors throughout the week! |

This Sunday's Service - September 5th |
|
We'll celebrate this 15th Sunday after Pentecost with Holy Communion and observe Labor Day weekend with prayers for safe travel and blessings as students, teachers and staffs return to schools. This Sunday we celebrate God's many blessings and consider what it means - in the midst of our material wealth - to follow Jesus, who calls us to give up everything we own. |

Greetings from the Pastor |

 "So let us not grow weary in doing what is right, for we will reap at harvest time, if we do not give up. 10 So then, whenever we have an opportunity, let us work for the good of all, and especially for those of the family of faith.” - Galatians 6:9-10
Sisters and brothers in Christ, grace and peace to you in this beautiful, fragrant, fruitful time of year!
I have rejoiced over the past month as gifts of cucumbers and beans and tomatoes and zucchini have been shared among us. What a delight it is to partake of the abundance of the earth, the abundance of God’s rich blessings. What fun it is to find tables overflowing with the harvest, and hearts overflowing with the joy of offering it.

"First Lutheran congregation is a community of God's people called through the Gospel of Christ to faith and faith sharing. Our task is to make the Risen Christ known to the world He died to save. We do this as we proclaim and teach the Gospel, share the sacraments, and reach out in faithful witness and loving service to everyone, everywhere." |
