Your Sunday Experience
Sunday mornings are designed to provide an experience of the sacred using language, stories, reflections, experiences, and music that are grounded in traditional Lutheran piety while being accessible and relevant. Weekly services follow seasonal themes while our Festival Sundays weave spiritual insights into cultural celebrations to add deeper levels of meaning to the holidays we all love and enjoy. All of these experiences are a way we give expression to our Identity Statement.

Each week, we explore the dynamics of the spiritual life reflected in the lives of community members who share their stories and insights into their own journey. This series also informs our Soul Forum Podcast. Join us!

We design each of our gatherings on Sunday morning to reflect traditional Luthean piety with a focus on the life and teachings of Jesus as well as exploring language that makes sense for today. We offer a seasonal approach that provides variety throughout the year.
Music is led by organ or piano. Songs are selected from the Lutheran hymnal and a variety of additional sources including spirituals, gospel, and global music.
