We hope that you find us to be warm and engaging. We want to meet you and get to know you. 

We have two worship services, at 8:30 and 11:00. The 8:30 service is a contemporary worship service with a praise band and a less formally structured worship. We have coffee and donuts for the service on most Sundays. Feel free to bring your own tumbler of coffee or tea. 

The 11:00 service uses the pipe organ, has a chancel choir and uses a more traditional service structure. Folks tend to not carry beverages into this service.

We have a nursery for children from infant to five years old. Each service contains a Children’s Message early in the service after which children 3 to 5 leave the service for the nursery. Children six and older tend to remain in the service, however the 11am service has a program for children 6 to 9 that offers an alternative to sitting in the worship service.

What you wear is not important. We stress that folks come as you are, and we mean it. We wear a range of clothing from jeans to suits. A few men wear ties and jackets, but most do not. The dress at the 8:30 service is a bit more relaxed than at 11, but you still see jeans and t-shirts there too. In the summer you will see shorts worn at both services, by men and women. The point is if dressing up is customary for you, then do what feels appropriate. If you are in a more casual attire frame of mind, then do that. Do what makes you feel comfortable. You doubtless will see someone else dressed similarly.

Yes, there are Sunday School classes and gatherings between the service times, from 9:45 until 10:45. There is a nursery for children younger than 6. There are classes for children aged 6 to 8, 9 to 12, middle school aged, and high school aged. There is an adult group that meets to read and discuss various topics, from Bible study to a variety of Christian literature.

We would love to have you become a member of LUMC. The process for becoming a member is simple, but unique for each person or family. First, attend LUMC worship and get involved in areas of ministry that interest you. Second, express your desire to become a member to the pastor. The pastor will discuss with you the process and seek to answer questions. If you have been a member of a church elsewhere, LUMC will request your membership to be transferred. If you are becoming a member of a church for the first time then baptism and professing your faith in Jesus Christ will be involved. Lastly, we will welcome you into membership in a worship service, and the congregation will want to express their joy over your decision! Some folks are ready to join shortly after attending, and others have been faithful participants for years without joining. We encourage you to become a member, but hope you’ll become active and involved as you take time to consider that important decision.
