Our
Mission |
The purpose of Grace Lutheran Church
is to make disciples of all people by reaching out to the lost with the
Gospel of Jesus Christ and by building up believers
through the Word of the Lord. |
Our
Teachings
|
We are a Bible
church. We believe the Bible is the inspired and inerrant Word of
God and the only foundation
for our faith and life. Therefore all our teachings are
taken from the Bible. |
|
Our Invitation |

If you have any questions regarding your
relationship with God, feel free to consult with our pastor. If you
are looking for a Bible-teaching church family, we invite you
to worship with us regularly. If you have
not visited Grace before, you may wish to see our
Visitor's Guide
page for more information.

Our Affiliation |
We are affiliated with
the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS),
so named because
its founders
began their work in the state of Wisconsin in 1850. Today
the Wisconsin Synod has congregations in all
fifty states and on all continents of the
world. |
