Ministry Opportunities
As Disciples who seek to follow in the way of Jesus Christ, we need to do as Jesus did to nourish and strengthen our relationship with God. At First Lutheran we have communal spiritual disciplines which serve to strengthen our faith and prepare us for service- Worship, Learning, and Building relationships with our sisters and brothers at First Lutheran. We speak of these communal spiritual disciplines as the three areas of ministry: Worship, Education,and Congregational Care.
Our Disciples/Members serve in many and various ways to provide these ministries to one another. We hope each Disciple/Member will discover an area of service which brings them joy and strengthens their faith. There are many opportunities to become involved in Ministry Opportunities at First Lutheran Church. In addition to the ministry areas of Worship, Education, and Congregational Care, there are also administrative opportunities for getting involved.
