Welcome to First Lutheran Church (FLC)
ALL ARE WELCOME
In-person (masked) and online (zoom) options. More about worship is here.
The best way to keep up is our weekly newsletter. Here’s the latest:
For children, around elementary school age: learn about the meaning and practice of Holy Communion in worship, the story of Jesus and the Bible: forgiveness, sharing, parties, service. Contact one of the pastors if you can join us.
A few of us read some theology and gather around happy hour on a Wednesday for conversation. This month: short essays by 20th century greats Karl Barth and Dietrich Bonhoeffer, on the “Strange New World within the Bible.” Contact Pastor Bernt for the readings.
Open to elementary, middle, high school students and adults – a nurturing, friendly and fun program for developing skills in playing chamber music; chamber
orchestra and small chamber groups. At the end of each week there is a concert featuring all of the participants – and some will play at FLC worship.
All ages join in service, learning, music, food, fun, helping out and just being together. Children are vital to this community. Our women’s group meets monthly.
We love singing together; we love our choirs. We’re blessed with skilled musicians, fine instruments and people willing to share a variety of musical gifts. More about music here.
We’ve walked with local refugees seeking asylum and provide scholarships for children at our sister church in El Salvador. We’re called to care for people needing help.
We read Scripture together, ask tough questions, laugh and pray. We explore the tradition, read and talk about issues: Sunday adult forum (9am) and Thursday Bible Study (10am).
