As Lutherans we live by the understanding that our faithful response to God’s grace includes working for justice and peace. This response is rooted in an important Bible verse for us: For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God (Ephesians 2:8).
We are an inclusive community that embraces all people, including those of every age, race, ethnic background, culture, nationality, gender identity, relationship status, sexual orientation, physical or mental ability, socioeconomic status, educational background, political affiliation, or life experience. You are loved. You are worthy. You are welcome here.
So, bring your baggage and your blessings. Bring your hurts and your hopes. Bring your grievances and your gifts. Come and discover this central sacred truth of the gospel: No matter who you are, where you have been, what you have done, or what has been done to you, THERE’S GRACE FOR THAT and there’s a place for you here.
