MISSION & VISION
VISION STATEMENT:
ASKING OURSELVES THE QUESTION, "HOW CAN I HELP OTHERS EXPERIENCE CHRIST?"
The overarching Vision for the next 5 years (2023-2028) is to be continually asking ourselves the question, "How Can I Help Others Experience Christ?"
In alignment of all Ministries of Immanuel Lutheran Church, we focus on this same question.
