Mission Statement – Guiding the congregation’s mission
“Rooted in Christ, we are growing in faith to bear fruit in the world.”
Who Are We – and what we are all about
We are people who follow Jesus. First Lutheran Church is made up of many diverse people, all of whom are people whose lives have been touched by the love of God in Jesus Christ. Because our lives have been enriched by God’s love, we seek to worship God, love and support one another, grow in faith and become more like Christ in the way we live, help people in need, and share the Good News of God’s redeeming love with others.
