Worship and Music

Our worship uses the liturgical settings from the 2006 Evangelical Lutheran Worship hymnal and changes seasonally. We also incorporate other service music, and, occasionally, special music, like the performance of the “Sweet Adelines” on our Bold Women’s Sunday in 2016.

We celebrate Holy Communion at least twice a month on the first and third Sundays, as well as on all festival Sundays, and during Advent, Lent and Easter.  All baptized worshipers are invited to share in the sacrament and those who do not receive are invited forward for a blessing.

You may find answers to other frequently asked questions about Lutheran worship here, and here.
