It is a place where you can grow in faith, meet new friends, find new family activities and build new relationships. Throughout the week there are various gatherings of people for study, conversation, and friendship. In addition, our pre-school and elementary school serves nearly 300 children and their families. You can learn more about our school family by going to www.lovemyschool.net. We have many other activities for you to be a part of as well, varying from Music Ministry, Children’s Ministry, Lutheran Braille Workers to our Golden Eagles Sr Ministry and more.
