Our Communion Statement
We believe that in the Lord's Supper we are receiving the true body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of our sins (Matthew 26:26-28). We also believe that it is possible to receive the Lord's Supper to your spiritual harm if you are unprepared to receive this gift (1 Corinthians 11:29). Furthermore, we believe that communing at our altar is a confession of your fellowship with us.
Because we care about your spiritual health and we desire for you to be in true fellowship with us, we ask that if you are not a member of a Lutheran Church Missouri Synod (LCMS) congregation or a congregation in full altar and pulpit fellowship with the LCMS, you would please speak with the pastor before coming to the altar. As a courtesy, guests who are not under any Church discipline and are from fellow LCMS congregations are also asked to introduce themselves to the pastor before the service.
