I'M NEW HERE

IMMANUEL:

A COMMUNITY OF CHRIST FOLLOWERS

When people think of the church, they often think of a place, a building. When you think of Immanuel, we hope you picture a community gathered around Jesus. 

 

That is what we are. 

 

We are a diverse community of imperfect but forgiven children of God, simultaneously sinners and saints, who are passionate about following Jesus where ever He may lead.

CHILDREN ARE IMPORTANT AT IMMANUEL

 

 

God has uniquely gifted Immanuel to serve families.  During the week, our building is filled with children from six weeks to six years in our Early Childhood Center.

On the weekends, there is Sunday School available for all ages. For children three through high school, there are multi-aged classes, and Nursery available while you are attending Bible Study in the Sanctuary. During Service, Children are invited by Pastor Matt to the front to have a special Children's Sermon.

 

Confirmation is also offered during the week for youth beginning in Seventh grade.

OUR SUNDAY MORNING

THE DIVINE SERVICE

Our Sunday morning begins with Divine Service at 10:00 AM. Our style is Liturgical Lutheran worship including hymns, confession, readings, sermon, prayers and weekly communion. Weekly we gather around Jesus who comes to bless us through Word and Sacrament. We follow a three year lectionary that  leads us through the Gospels, the Epistles, the Psalms and the Old Testament.  The messages are rooted in the weekly readings. 

 

WHETHER YOU WANT TO ATTEND IN-PERSON OR ONLINE,
THERE IS AN OPTION FOR YOU!

 

WE WANT FAMILIES TO WORSHIP TOGETHER

We encourage the participation of young children. Our Divine Service proceeds with Scripture Lessons followed by a Children's Message before the main Sermon. To help our families in worship, there are "Church Bags" available in the narthex (lobby) with activities for younger children. Plus, we have an easily accessible cry room.

 

SUNDAY SCHOOL

Prior to Service with an educational hour for children and adults. Children are invited to In-Person Sunday School stating at 8:45 am. We are gathering for Adult instruction (Hybrid: both Livestream and In-Person) at 8:45 am and expect to end at 9:30 am every Sunday (unless otherwise indicated beforehand).

Connecting to our Community

We believe that God has called us to serve our community and announce His love to this world. Through our lives, jobs, families circles and friendships God has uniquely placed in our lives, we are to commit our lives to demonstrating God's immeasurable love as best as we can. When Jesus preached to the crowd in Luke 6:32-38, he was quick to say that we are called to love those who are hard to love - not just the ones that love you in return. Immanuel exists to do just that. Express God's unending love and mercy to those that need it the most.
