Lutheran Laymen's League (LLL)
This group is open to all men of the congregation as a way to support the work of the congregation and Jesus' mission in our community. Join their meetings on the second Monday of every month for a delicious meal, a helpful Bible study, and a short time to discuss how to further the work of the church. The LLL in our congregation began in 1947. Lutheran Hour Ministries, the media outreach arm of the International LLL, uses TV, radio programming and other outreach tools, to equip the laity in North America and around the world. For more information, visit their website.
Lutheran women's missionary league (LWML)
This group is open to all women of the congregation as a way to encourage and equip women to live out their Christian lives in active mission ministries and to support global missions. Join their meetings on the first Thursday of every month! The LWML is the official women's auxiliary of the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod.
Vacation Bible School (VBS)
Every summer, we offer a themed VBS that focuses on teaching children the good news about salvation by grace through faith because of what Jesus has done for us. VBS classes are for children preschool through 6th grade. Middle school students, high school students, and adults help to tell the children about Jesus and lead them in activities like music, games, crafts, and snack. Each evening we begin with a light meal. During the Divine Service the Sunday after VBS, the children and teachers are invited to share with the congregation some of the songs they learned during the week.
