Frequently Asked Questions:

I've got questions. Who should I ask? + -

The best place to start is with the pastor(s). They can answer any questions you have about their church or the Lutheran tradition if you contact them by phone or email or talk to them after the service. If you have a question immediately before the service and the pastor isn’t available, ask one of the ushers.

Do I have to bring a Bible? + -

Most confessional Lutheran churches have Bible study classes, either on Sunday or on different days of the week. You’ll also find pew bibles in most churches so that you can follow along with the scripture readings. A lot of confessional Lutheran churches also print the daily readings in the bulletin. Churches equipped with projector screens also show them so you can follow along.

How do I join a Lutheran church? + -

We suggest visiting an individual church for a while to get a good feel for the congregation. Then, when you’re ready, talk to the pastor to get started. Unless you’re transferring from another church in the same synod, you’ll typically have to take some classes to learn more about the beliefs of the church. Then, once you accept, you’ll be received into the church formally as a member.

Can I take Holy Communion? + -

If you’re visiting, be sure to ask one of the elders or the pastor before the service.

What should I wear? + -

Come as you are...there's no dress code. You'll see men and women wearing jeans or shorts, business suits, and everything in between.

Can I bring my kids? + -

Absolutely. Matthew 19:14 commands us to help children receive the gospel message in church. Sunday School is also provided at 12PM for ages 3-6 and 7-12. Children of all ages are welcome in worship. A nursery for ages three and under.
