Worship

Divine Services are held every Sunday and on major feast days of the church. Lutherans believe in the “true presence” of Christ through the means of grace, God’s Word and Holy Sacraments. The Lord has promised to be present to the worshipping assembly: “Where two or three are gathered in my name, I am there among them.” (Matthew 18:20)

Two services of Holy Communion are celebrated every week on the day of our Lord’s resurrection. Holy Communion is offered at both services on Sundays. Worshippers at the 8:30 service celebrate a traditional setting of the liturgy. The service at 11:00 (10:00 through the summer) blends traditional and more contemporary music. The primary worship resource used in worship at Grace is the hymnal, Evangelical Lutheran Worship.

Holy Baptism is celebrated regularly throughout the year and especially at major festivals of the church, namely, the Vigil of Easter, Pentecost, All Saints, Christmas and the Baptism of our Lord. Prayers for Healing with the laying on of hands and anointing with oil are offered at the regularly scheduled Sunday services each quarter.
