Worship is where we start and end as a community of faith in Christ.   We offer different styles of worship at a variety of times each week to help people engage in faith when and where they are most comfortable. 


5 p.m. Saturdays:
Piano-led traditional worship with modified liturgy, and special music primarily through vocal and instrumental solos. Our pastors give the message and wear traditional vestments, or robes. Holy Communion is celebrated every week and is open to all. There is use of our cry room during this service.


9 a.m. Sundays:

Organ-led traditional worship with modified liturgy, and vocal and bell choirs and occasional solo music. Our pastors give the message and wear traditional vestments, or robes. Holy Communion is celebrated every week and is open to all. Childcare is available during this service.


11 a.m. Sundays:

A contemporary style band-led worship service with music from popular Christian recording artists along with familiar congregational songs of our Lutheran heritage. Our pastors give a weekly message with Holy Communion celebrated and open to all. Childcare is available during this service.


6:30 p.m. Wednesdays:

Our Wednesday Evening Midweek ECHO Worship is contemporary in style and led by many youth in our Confirmation Ministry. ECHO Worship is meant to "echo" the themes of weekend worship. The worship culture of ECHO is safe place to explore your faith journey in a relaxed atmosphere. Holy Communion is celebrated every week and is open to all.

Turning Points

   in the Journey of Faith

What are the turning points in life? A new job offering. Falling in Love. Getting married.  Sometimes the turning points are more challenging. Losing a job. Sickness. Grief. In the journey of life, the basic question is—how do we discern the presence and work of God in all these turning points? 


The story of God's people in the Bible is marked by turning points. Many times, the turning point marks an end of our schemes leading to an awareness of our need for God's forgiveness and hope.  As we look at these turning points in the Bible, we will ask ourselves—where am I in the journey of faith. How is God turning to me, getting my attention, and calling me to turn to God in faith?
