We are office workers, farmers, retirees, students. We're employed moms and stay-at-home moms. We're single, married, divorced, widowed. Many of us are related to each other by blood or marriage, but we're all brothers and sisters in God's family!
As a church, we come from the tradition of German Lutheranism. The congregation was founded in 1925, and services were conducted in German for years. As individuals, we're lifelong Missouri Synod Lutherans, converts from other Lutheran bodies, and converts from non-Lutheran denominations. Some of us were brought up at St. Paul's, and some of us moved here later in life. But one origin we share is our sinful birth, from which we were all redeemed by our crucified and risen Savior, Jesus Christ.
Well, obviously only God knows the answer to that one, but we certainly hope we are headed deeper into relationship with our triune God and deeper into love for our fellow human beings.
In a small congregation like ours, you can get to know your brothers and sisters in Christ, be the family of God together as you feed on His word and sacraments and serve your neighbor.
