Many Hearts, One Lord
Welcome to Resurrection Lutheran Church, a worshiping community gathered by the Holy Spirit from many nations throughout the world. Our mission is to love and serve God by serving others. It is through this love and service that we live our Christian faith. We believe that we are all human beings who belong to one race, created by one God in his/her image. As such, we are the children of the same God – brothers and sisters. We therefore, welcome everyone to come and worship God and explore our purpose by the creator so that we can all grow spiritually. “Come all those who are heavy laden and I will give you rest; my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Says Jesus the Christ. Come! There is a place for you here at Resurrection Lutheran Church on this side of God’s Kingdom where All Are Welcome.
