The readings and prayers are also printed there for you. Of course, you're always welcome to bring along your own Bible and follow along with the readings there if you choose. Our worship is liturgical, which means that we have a set order of worship every week. Every Sunday we consistently focus on God's Word and Sacrament because only through the words of Scripture and in the sacraments of Holy Baptism and Holy Communion does God freely offer us the forgiveness of sins and eternal life. These things are the only source of our spiritual lives and spiritual growth.
Music is also an important part of our worship.
Through our singing of hymns and other songs we express our thanks to God for his wonderful salvation. As Lutherans we are blessed with a rich heritage of excellent hymnody called Lutheran chorales. These powerful hymns remind us of the many wonderful things our Savior has done for us and for our salvation. In our worship we use traditional forms along with modern language and applications. The traditional features of our worship bring us the best from God's Church throughout the ages, while the contemporary features remind us that God's promises of forgiveness, guidance and peace still apply to our daily lives.
