Worship Ministry strongly upholds our Lutheran heritage with a Traditional Worship Service every Sunday morning during our early worship service. Traditional worship is also offered on the 2nd and 4th Sunday of the month. We also offer a Contemporary Worship Service for our late service on the 1st & 3rd (5th) Sunday of the month. In addition, we have a Chapel Service mid-week twice a month from September-May. Recently, we have also added “Hope and Harmony.” This is a   special gathering for devotion and spiritual reflection. This service is held outdoors (seasonally) once a month basis and includes contemporary music and testimonies based on an inspiring moment, faithful experience or ministry. During the summer we go to a once a month worship service that rotates traditional and contemporary services.
