Worship at The Lutheran Church of the Resurrection

Sunday Worship - 10:30 a.m.

Morning Prayer - Wednesdays - 8:00 a.m.

Worship at the Lutheran Church of the Resurrection follows the characteristic pattern of the Christian church when it gathers on Sunday, the day of resurrection. Reading of the Word and strong preaching make up the first half of the service, and strong celebration of Holy Communion provides the second half. Congregation and choir gather with a rich variety of song around pulpit and table, sometimes with the many instruments people in our church play. We sing with vigor – five or more settings of the liturgy at different times in the Church Year and the ecumenical spread of hymnic resources the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America provides.

The three-year ecumenical lectionary and the contours of the Church Year discipline our practice. Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and the Great Vigil of Easter form the year’s center. The weekly Biblical passages are fodder for preaching as well as for study at home and in classes. During Advent and Lent on Wednesday evenings we gather for Evening Prayer. On Wednesday mornings a small group gathers in the Fireside Room to sing and pray Morning Prayer or the morning form of Responsive Prayer.

We welcome visitors to join us in our worship, to participate with us in the educational forums that follow in the Fireside Room, and to go with us into the world where it propels us as Christ’s body.
