Our Congregation | |||
|
First Lutheran Church exists to spread the good news of
Jesus Christ, as our crucified and risen Savior, to the ends
of the earth. The members of First Lutheran gather to hear
the good news on Sundays and to receive the blessings of
faith, hope and forgiveness, through God's Word and the
Sacraments of Baptism and Holy Communion.

Our Elders | |||
|
The function of the Elders at First Lutheran Church is as
St. Paul wrote in 1 Timothy 5:17, "The Elders who direct the
affairs of the church." They are to rebuke sin, pursue
righteousness, be an aid to the Pastor, and share in the
family joys and sorrows of our members. They include the
members and Pastor in their prayers and try to lead upright
lives.

whole lot more. The LCW is a part of the Lutheran Women's
Missionary League of the LCMS.

Our Senior Youth Group is providing our community with
awareness for the Word of God through this website. Our

Our Preschool | |||
|
One Way Preschool provides a wonderful education opportunity
for preschoolers within the congregation and the community.
The goal of our preschool is not just to educate little
ones, but also to bring the good news of Jesus to many who
may not have heard it before.
