Living as God’s Temple
Both Peter and Paul in the New Testament focus on the gathered believers role of being God’s Temple here on earth. Focusing on Paul’s second letter to the Corinthians, we will discuss the wonderful role we have as members of this temple. We have many benefits through this call from Jesus, but also some duties […]
Holy Week, a Special Time
This year, Holy Week begins on April 14 with our Palm Sunday celebrations: Traditional Worship at 9 AM, followed by the Palm Sunday Fair from 10-10:45, and the our Family Worship at 10:45. These will be fun, festive opportunities to celebrate our Lord. The mood shifts, though, as the week progresses and we move into […]
Palm Sunday Worship & Fair
Hard to believe it, but Lent has been whizzing by, and a week from this Sunday (April 13) will be Palm Sunday. And we have lots of celebrations planned to mark this special day which begins Holy Week. First, at the beginning of the 9:00 AM traditional service we will gather in the narthex […]
As You Like It: Special Interest Groups at LCC
The success of our Simply Social events has gotten us thinking…perhaps there might be smaller, special-interest groups that people might like to form among church members. So with the help of Council President Denice Higman and Council Secretary Laurel Ackerman, LCC is surveying our congregation to see what they might like to get together to […]

Cathedral Choir Makes a Splash at LCC
Isn’t that just like our Lord, that at the times when we need help the most, God always provides. Case in point: We’re all still recovering from last fall’s double-whammy hurricanes. Even as houses and our church are sloooowly making their way back to being restored, our spirits have still been sagging a bit. The […]
Midweek Lenten Journey
Welcome to the Gift of the Rest of Lent! So, you’ve gotten your ashes (or not!), so now you can just jump right to Holy Week, right? Wrong! If you think that, you’re missing out on the beautiful gift of Lent, which is a time the Church sets aside for contemplation, self-examination and study. […]
Lenten Good Gifts Campaign
The disciple of Lent often includes giving of ourselves in various ways to help us focus on putting God first in our lives. Each year during Lent our church gets involved helping with the ELCA’s Good Gifts Campaign. Led by our Children’s Education Team, this year we have decided to focus on nutrition for at-risk […]
Ashes to Begin the Journey
We invite you to begin a Lenten journey with us that will begin this week with Ash Wednesday and will continue on toward Jesus’ Passion and resurrection. On Ash Wednesday, we will offer worship with Communion and the Imposition of Ashes at noon, followed by a soup lunch. Then at 7:00 PM, we will again […]
