Emmanual Evangelical Lutheran Church

Mission Statement

“We are called by the Holy Spirit and therefore commit ourselves to invite, nurture, and equip everyone with a faith for daily living, and Christian service that all might know God’s saving love through Jesus” (The Great Commission – Matthew 28: 18-20) Adopted by the Congregation, November 23, 1997

Vision Statement

We envision our community of faith as one of the leading churches in making disciples for Jesus; Therefore we dedicate ourselves to this ministry that all might:

Know Jesus Christ and His love by inviting everyone to meet Him no matter where they are in their spiritual journey.

Grow in that love through dynamic worship, prayer, Bible study and small group ministry

Go and share His love with others through active service in our congregation, community, and throughout the world.

(Adopted by the congregation on November 22, 1998)

Value Statement

As a community we value FAITH, which is our confident assurance of forgiveness and eternal salvation through Jesus Christ revealed to us by the Holy Spirit through God’s Word. Faith frees us to live an authentic life of LOVE, HONESTY, COMPASSION and FORGIVENESS in all our relationships.

Being called and empowered by the Holy Spirit we live a life of discipleship marked by SELF-DISCIPLINE and COURAGE. Trusting that our self-worth is grounded completely in the Life, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ we commit ourselves to HUMBLE SERVICE to God, our neighbors, and all creation.
