University Lutheran Church
About Us:
We are a community of Christians in the Lutheran tradition. Our emphasis is on the grace of God that is given to us in the gift of Jesus Christ, and through Christ gives us as gifts to one another.
We are not perfect people, but a community that is called together by the perfect love of God. We are a church family that is open to all people who desire the companionship of Christ and his people on their life’s journey.
Our core values emphasize hospitality, mutual respect, genuine relationships, mutual support, personal growth and wholeness. We welcome you!
Our Mission Statement:
"University Lutheran Church connects people to God and to each other on their spiritual journeys by the Gospel of Christ's nurturing love.”
What We Believe
That truth is shared. The Truth is Out There, God Wants You to Have it . . .
The Lutheran church stands within the mainstream of Christian faith and makes no claim to have some revelation or truth denied to other Christians. The largest Protestant denomination on this planet, with members around the world, the Lutheran church dates back to the 1500's and the Reformation led by Martin Luther.
The Augsburg Confession, a faith statement which binds all Lutherans together, declares that Lutheranism is not a sect but rather one expression of the worldwide Christian community.
Lutherans also share with other Christians traditional statements such as the Apostles' and Nicene Creeds, in which early Christians expressed their faith. So, in a real sense, Lutheranism dates back to Christ.
