Some Lutherans in America have taken up the trappings of the dominant Protestant culture in America, or worse, the entertainment industry. We have resisted–not because we reject change or because we ‘prefer’ to do things the way they “have always been done.” We believe that the Lord serves us in the Divine service (Worship Service).
He feeds us with His word.
He feeds us with His very body and blood
He provides the very forgiveness of sins right here on earth.
We are fully committed to the Holy Scriptures, the Book of Concord, and the study of the historic liturgy and therefore, we receive our Lutheran heritage, including its ceremonies, as grateful recipients.
Our Beliefs & Values
With the universal Catholic–not Roman Catholic–Christian Church, Calvary Lutheran Church teaches and responds to the love of the Triune God. What does that look like?
God speaks; we speak back what He has said. The Father, creator of all that exists; Jesus Christ, the Son, who became human to suffer and die for the sins of all human beings and to rise to life again in the ultimate victory over death and Satan; and the Holy Spirit, who creates faith through God’s Word and Sacraments. The three persons of the Trinity are coequal and coeternal, one God.
Being Lutheran, our congregations accept and teach Bible-based teachings of Martin Luther and the reformers, which can be summarized in three short phrases: Grace alone, Faith alone, Scripture alone.
If you have any questions about our worship, the pictures you see on this website, or anything else regarding our congregation, feel free to contact Calvary.
