Christian Education
Our Calling in Education is centered by the belief that God calls us to guide people in the Christian faith and the Lutheran Doctrine.
Evangelism
Evangelism stimulates and leads all members of the congregation in continuous and, sometimes, concerted endeavors to reawaken the spiritually indifferent and to reach others with the Gospel and attach them to Christ's church. This group devotes itself to deepening the spiritual life of the surrounding community.
9 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Matthew 28:19-20
Fellowship
Fellowship endeavors to provide opportunities for the congregation to experience fellowship together. They provide programs aimed at the whole family in some functions and just adults in others. They strive to include singles and new members in all of the fellowship events.
Finance
The goal of the finance committee is to oversee the budget preparation, ensure a balanced budget, project and report, on and as needed basis, expected income shortfalls and assist in programs to remedy the shortfall.
The longer-term goal of the committee is to ensure that the financial efforts of the church lead to the accomplishment of the congregation’s mission and goals.
Maintenance
Maintenance oversees the proper repair and maintenance of the buildings, land, utilities, and basic furniture belonging to the congregation.
Social Ministries
We express our faith and love for God and man by reaching out to the community and serving those in need.
Stewardship
Stewardship promotes the expression of Christian faith in daily living. Stewardship provides knowledge that assists members in determining how their gifts, time, and talents can be best used to the glory of God.

This group advances the welfare and service of the choir. They are also responsible for the care of paraments, vestments, communion supplies and musical instruments. Finally, they provide the music supplies appropriate for use in the worship services.
Youth
The youth committee integrates the youth of the church into the active life of the church. It provides, through various programs, opportunities for youth to take part in worship, service, fellowship activities and such that they may grow in their spiritual and emotional development in the way of Christ. Finally, the committee shall seek to encourage our youth to attend events of the larger church as they occur.
