MISSION STATEMENT:  We, at Immanuel Lutheran Church, are called by God to lead people to love God and one another, to build a healthy community of disciples in Christ Jesus, and to serve others. (see endnote #3)
​
VISION STATEMENT: Our faith, at Immanuel Lutheran Church, is built upon God, as revealed in Holy Scripture and made known to us in Jesus Christ. We practice and grow our faith in God and in relationship with one another through worship, and through service as well as through personal and small group learning experiences.
 
KEY COMPONENTS OF VISION STATEMENT EXPLANATION:
  •  WORSHIP: To provide worship services using traditional and contemporary sources that gives members and visitors the opportunity to experience the grace, love and joy of God.                                                          
  • CHRISTIAN EDUCATION: To be Biblically and theologically informed. Our Christian faith is grounded in Biblically oriented sermons and strong educational programs for all age groups.  
  • SERVICE: To empower members of our congregation to serve God through involvement in a variety of congregational, community, social ministry and global church activities in innovative ways, including partnerships in the community.
  • INVITING COMMUNITY: To welcome persons of all cultures and backgrounds to participate in our Lutheran worship, and our congregational activities while offering a place of sanctuary and support.                
  • OUTREACH: To bring Jesus Christ to the community through worship, through education, through service opportunities, through fellowship activities, through personal community engagement (such as prayer walks, introductions/interviews with community leaders, etc.) and through online media, collaborating where possible with others.
