How To Become a Member

The unity of our congregation is based on a mutually-held faith. For this reason, those coming from a non-Lutheran Church Missouri Synod background must first attend the 7 week Adult Information Class to learn the doctrinal basics before becoming members. The classes sessions are fun, fast-paced, and anything but boring. Child care is also provided. Just let us know in advance.

...Hope to see you there!


Oh yes... Class sessions are held in "The Gathering "Place." (Click on the highlighted text for directions.)
