Worship Schedule
While our “Traditions” + “Windows” worship services each have a different look and feel, we weave both ancient and modern liturgy and music so you will experience familiar patterns, prayers and music here at Faith regardless of where you have worshipped before. We invite you to worship with us and try to welcome guests in a warm and non-intrusive way; in fact we've been expecting you!
Windows to Faith Sunday at 8:30 am
Drawing on our contemporary and complex post-modern world, this worship experience sheds God’s light and love on our faith journey. Our cross-generational Praise Ensemble leads us in singing about God’s love and promises. Together we confess our brokenness, listen to ...God’s story through the Bible, listen for our stories through reflections on God’s story, share Communion at God’s table, and we leave reflecting God’s love through the windows of our lives.
Traditions Worship Sunday at 10:30 am
Drawing on our ancient Christian heritage, this liturgy (or work of the people) follows the traditional Lutheran worship service of Word and Sacrament and speaks with appropriate relevance for today. Chorale and hand bell choirs, solo musicians, and a variety of hymns accompanied by our pipe organ and piano lead the assembly in song. We follow settings from the Evangelical Lutheran Worship (ELW) book, accompanied by scripture, children’s message, sermon, with the Eucharist shared each week.
Holy Communion is shared at both services, and all are welcome at The Lord's Table.

Lutheran Worship: An Overview
Introduction & Background
In our Lutheran Christian tradition, we, Jesus's church, are defined by our worship.
This does not mean that all worshiping assemblies do the same things in the same way. Even so, worship is fundamental to our Christian and Lutheran identity. In worship, we encounter God’s mission to the world, centered in Jesus Christ. Jesus is the living and abiding Word of God proclaimed in the scriptures.
This explanation of our worship is focused around the familiar four-fold pattern of Gathering, Word, Meal, and Sending.

Holy Communion at Faith
At Faith, we celebrate Holy Communion at all Sunday worship services.
We believe and teach that the Lord's Supper is Jesus's gift to all God's baptized people, and gives us spiritual strength to bring the Good News to our neighbors and the whole world. Whoever you are in your journey of faith, and wherever you are on that journey, you are welcome at our Holy Communion table. |
