Denomination: Lutheran Congregation in Mission for Christ - LCMC
We are a church that is rich in history and looking forward to continue the tradition of bringing the Gospel to our local community.
We are a confessional church meaning we follow the confessional documents in the Book of Concord. But this does not mean we put these documents above Scripture, rather we view that Scripture upholds the confessional documents. These writings are not meant to increase faith or offer a substitute or re-wording to the Gospel rather they are designed to keep the Church accountable to the Scriptures. Some might ask why are these documents needed and isn't the Bible enough? The short answer is they are not necessary as the Bible is sufficient for us as believers. The Book of Concord simply unpacks some theological approaches to Scripture and among other doctrinal issues, lays out definitions of what sacraments are and how do we view them.
