Greetings!
We'd like to
introduce Good Shepherd Lutheran Church to you. We are a church
which believes that God has revealed His love to us through His
Son Jesus Christ and we would welcome the opportunity to tell you
more about this good news and to have you share in our fellowship.
All that we
believe, teach, and confess is drawn from the pages of Holy Scripture
alone.
We
believe:
"All have
sinned and fall short of the glory of God." (Rom 3:23)
"The wages
of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus
our Lord." (Rom 6:23)
"For God
so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever
believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." (John
3:16)
"The blood
of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin." (I Jn 1:7)
"It is
by grace you have been saved, through faith-- and this not from
yourselves, it is the gift of God-- not by works, so that no one
can boast."
(Eph 2:8-9) So that
"You may
declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his
wonderful light." (1 Pet 2:9)
Furthermore,
we believe that Christ is truly present with us still today through
the mysteries of His Word and the Sacraments, Baptism & the
Lord's Supper. Our weekly worship together reflects this belief,
reverence, and joy.
It is our desire
to reach out with this life-changing message within our community
and throughout the world as Good Shepherd sponsors a variety of
education and mission opportunities at home and abroad.
Please feel
free to contact us with any questions
you might have. We look forward to serving you, our neighbor, and,
together, our Lord Jesus Christ!
