"We are a family of Christ dedicated to nurturing, strengthening, and affirming one another in Christian faith. God calls us to serve others who touch our daily lives in our neighborhoods and communities, in school, at work, and beyond..."

A Pastoral Vision for Family of Christ Lutheran Church
Let's be and become a church where....

1. The gospel of God's love in Jesus Christ is expressed in understandable language and is translated into personal relationships
2. Highest quality different worship styles are offered and respected
3. Guests are expected & welcomed, and newcomers are effectively gathered into relationships
4. People are clear about our church's strengths and goals and proudly invite others to join
5. Each individual quickly finds a place to belong and is known personally
6. Our programs keep growing in numbers & excellence, with opportunities for many tastes & all ages
7. We find important needs to serve in the community, and do so well enough that we'd be missed if we disappeared
8. We are an oasis of tranquility, regardless of the weather

• The house of God is a place of prayer and worship where ALL people are welcome.
• It's also a gathering place. Graced by hospitality you can develop friendships here, a sense of belonging and purpose.
• You'll find people of similar values & interests, age & circumstance.
• Our focus in worship and church life is on the Good News of God's grace in Jesus Christ, news that sets us free to trust God and do good.
• Newcomers feel welcome here and never out-of-place. We're "user-friendly."
• We allow you plenty of "space" without pressure. We'll let you take our invitation step-by-step at your own pace.
• We'd like to send TABLETALK, our weekly newsletter to keep you informed and invited.
• We offer opportunities for creative Christian service in home, community, the Twin Cities metro area, and, through the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America [ELCA], the nation and the world.
