What We Believe
At Our Father, we are committed to living out God’s mission for us on earth. This is an exciting, messy, challenging, rewarding, and grace-filled (even if not always graceful) calling that leads us into worship, service, and fellowship with one another, our community, and the world.
We are a congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. This means that we believe that God has already saved the world by grace through the faithfulness of Jesus Christ. This is a free gift of God’s love, and our actions (good or bad) play no part in it. It’s already been done. But this gift is also a call – it is a call to go out and share this good news with a world that desperately needs to hear it.
We believe that the good news of Jesus Christ is stronger than the powers of evil. This means that we try to live lives of love and generosity and hospitality instead of fear and scarcity and security. We don’t always get it right, but we do always strive to better live out our baptism.
We’d love for you to come by sometime and help us to discern what God is up to in our lives and community, and what God is calling us to do and be. You are welcome here.
What to Expect
At Our Father, you can expect to be welcomed into community, no matter who you are. All people are welcome here, and everyone is invited to come they are. If you like to worship in jeans, that’s fine. If you like wearing a dress or a suit, go for it.
Kids aren’t just welcome – they’re embraced! We love having them in worship with us (and we love all the noises and wiggles they bring with them).
A lot of worship these days gets categorized as “traditional” or “contemporary.” We try not to limit ourselves with that type of thinking. Worship at Our Father doesn’t fit in any one category. Sometimes we use the organ. Sometimes we use flutes or trumpets or guitars. Sometimes we sing old hymns. Sometimes we sing new hymns or contemporary songs. Sometimes we recite old words that have been used for generations. Sometimes we speak new words that are written specifically for here and now. Whatever we do, it’s all printed in the bulletin – all of the words, prayers, and songs – to make sure you’re able to fully participate.
