Open Tomb!  Open hearts!  Open Doors!
 
Open tomb!  We are people tied to the resurrection of Jesus Christ!
As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man, dressed in a white robe, sitting on the right side; and they were alarmed. But he said to them, “Do not be alarmed; you are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has been raised; he is not here.
Mark 16: 5-6

Open hearts!  We are people transformed by this good news, marked with the cross of Christ forever!
We have spoken frankly to you Corinthians; our heart is wide open to you.  There is no restriction in our affections, but only in yours.  In return—I speak as to children—open wide your hearts also.
2 Corinthians 6: 11-13

Open doors!  We are people called to proclaim good news with words of invitation and welcome!
I know your works. Look, I have set before you an open door, which no one is able to shut. I know that you have but little power, and yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.
Revelation 3: 8

Worship

 

Our worship schedule is:

Blended Style Worship with Holy Communion

8:30 A.M.*

This is an informal (casual dress) worship service using a more contemporary setting from our Evangelical Lutheran Worship hymnal. Musically this service utilizes the piano and other guest instrumentalists on occasion. It is liturgical in form, but more informal in setting. Holy Communion is celebrated each Sunday.

 

Sunday School 9:45 A.M. (beings September 11, 2011)


Traditional Worship Service 11:00 A.M.*
This is a liturgical setting reflecting the rich heritage of Lutheran worship, choir, children's message, and Holy Communion.

 

*Nursery provided for worship and education every Sunday.

Southeast Asia Flooding - November 2011
:
2011 typhoons and tropical storms have lashed out on much of southeast Asia with uncommon regularity from June to December. Though the region’s normal monsoon season extends from May to October, the intensity and frequency of these storms has led to massive flooding and landslides throughout the area. This has led to hundreds of thousands displaced from Thailand to the Philippines, as well as many dead and missing.
