Romans 8:28 notes, "We know that God works for the good for those who love him." Indeed, it is so disappointing to not be able to gather in our traditional ways. The threat of COVID-19 is frightening for many of us, and the economic implications are difficult. Even still, we trust that God will provide for us and guide us in this time.
WELCOME/BIENVENIDOS
Welcome to First Lutheran! God’s grace and love frees us to love
God, each other and our neighbors! We are glad you are joining us!
