FAQs

  • Clothes, please! Otherwise, wear what makes you comfortable. If you’re a jean / athleisure type, come on in! If you like wearing a top hat and tails, welcome! You will never be rejected based on your appearance. We will even respect your loyalty to any and all sports teams. We’re just that cool.

  • Gay? Yes! Just dipping your toes in religion? Yes! An atheist? Yes! An immigrant? Yes! A woman? Yes! Just visiting? Yes! Muslim/ Jewish/ Sikh/ Hindu/ Buddhist/? Yes! Trans? Yes! Republican? Yes! A child? Yes! We hope you understand… YOU are welcome, no matter what. It’s a Jesus thing.

  • A Christian! A Christian who believes God loves us all unconditionally, and wants us to love each other. Lutheran worship (at least our version of Lutheran worship) will be very familiar to many of our Roman Catholic, Episcopalian, and Anglican friends. No incense, but we light candles, pray, sing hymns, read scripture and preach. We have an awesome organ (and piano, and drums!). We share Holy Communion at all worship services. We follow the “liturgical calendar.” To find out more about Lutherans click here.

  • ALL ARE WELCOME! EVERY first Saturday of EVERY month, from 10 AM to 12 PM. Please drive CAREFULLY into the parking lot, take a place in line. We look forward to serving you!

    We provide:
