QUOTES FROM OUR MEMBERS THAT CAPTURE A BIT OF THE ACCEPTING SPIRIT YOU WILL ENCOUNTER AT LAKE CHELAN LUTHERAN CHURCH
This church connects me to the whole, quiets my soul. From this place I receive a fullness and return to my week, reconnected with the whole
I want God. I want to hear God’s voice in my life. I want to live life in color and not black and white
People pray at this church. Everything here is steeped in prayer. It is profound and unusual
People are themselves. Some are weird, some are broken, some joyful – and it all comes together
Church offers perspective to my woes – calls forth life on a larger stage – sets my sights on all good things, softens the rigid places of my heart, beckons me towards home
We Hold This Space
A space to worship………..where collective, unhurried silence is honored, where the liturgy speaks for us when our own words fail, where we bring our needs, our brokenness and our vulnerabilities, where we bathe ourselves in prayer and care for one another with acts that extend out into the community
A space where preaching is viewed as central to worship to help guide us in applying the Gospel to our day to day lives
A space where worshipers experience the power of the Holy Gospel through extraordinary preaching and the mystery of the weekly Eucharist that strengthen us to go out and serve as the body of Christ.
A space that honors the timeless traditions of the saints who have gone before us.
We are what God has made us – people whom God has created by grace to live in union with Jesus Christ and has prepared to live faithful, fruitful lives by the power of the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 2:8-10). In Jesus Christ, God has reconciled us to God and to each other. As we gather around word and sacraments, this life in Christ is what defines, shapes and guides us as a community of faith, the church.
By God’s grace we can and do live confidently and generously in this community of faith and in service of others, amid the mysteries and paradoxes of this life in Christ – including our human limitations and failings, and the ambiguities, uncertainties and suffering that we experience.
We are a church that walks by faith, trusting God's promise in the gospel and knowing that we exist by and for the proclamation of this gospel word. We proclaim Jesus Christ crucified and raised from the dead for the life of the world. As the apostle Paul wrote (Romans 1:16-17), and we echo in our Constitution (2.02), we are not ashamed of this gospel ministry because it is God’s power for saving all people who trust the God who makes these promises. “We are to fear and love God, so, that we do not despise preaching or God’s word, but instead keep that word holy and gladly hear it and learn it” (Small Catechism). God’s word, specifically God’s promise in Jesus Christ, creates this liberated, confident and generous faith. God gives the Holy Spirit who uses gospel proclamation – in preaching and sacraments, in forgiveness and in healing conversations – to create and sustain this faith. As a Lutheran church, we give central place to this gospel message in our ministry.
We understand to be Lutheran is to be ecumenical – committed to the oneness to which God calls the world in the saving gift of Jesus Christ, recognizing the brokenness of the church in history and the call of God to heal this disunity.
