Our Mission

"Living and Sharing God's Love Through Christ."

We are a collection of everyday people who gather to worship, study, play and
grow together in the name of Jesus Christ. For it is Jesus who takes us as sinners
and turns us into saints. This we believe with all our faith.


We are a people unified in purpose, yet diverse in character. We have been called to this particular congregation, Faith Lutheran Church, at this particular place and time.


As a church, we pledge ourselves to support those in time of need, celebrate with those in time of gladness, encourage responsible stewardship, promote justice and peace in society and proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ.

Is There Life After Death?

While there is much we do not and cannot know about life beyond the grave, Lutherans do believe that life with God persists even after death. Judgment is both a present and future reality, and history moves steadily towards God's ultimate fulfillment. This of course is a great mystery, and no description of what life may be like in any dimension beyond history is possible. Anxiety for the future is not a mark of faith. Christians should go about their daily tasks, trusting in God's grace and living a life of service in his name.
