Mission Statement
Empowering, Strengthening, and Facilitating People to Find Their Way Back to God
Our mission is to respond to God’s grace and empowerment by the Holy Spirit through worship, the Word, and sacraments. Resurrection Lutheran Church makes known the love of Christ by word and deed within our churches, communities, and the world. As adherents to the Christian faith rooted in Lutheran doctrines, we welcome all those who believe in Jesus’s earthly ministry into our fold.
About The Pastor
Rev. Miriam E. Sedzro
After several decades in the finance and insurance industries, Rev. Sedzro felt a divine calling to ministry. Ordained in 2009, she has since served as a Lutheran pastor at Resurrection Lutheran Church in Roxbury, where she leads with humility and dedication. Her journey has taken her across 37 states in the USA and to various countries, but her greatest blessings remain her family and her commitment to building God’s Kingdom.
Our History
Resurrection Lutheran Church (RLC) has a history deeply intertwined with the city’s evolution. Initially formed by a diverse group of European immigrants from various Christian traditions, our congregation has transformed into a welcoming community that embraces traditions from around the world. Today, RLC includes people from Asia, Africa, the Americas, and Europe, fostering a rich tapestry of cultural diversity. Our mission, rooted in the anchor of Jesus, is to love God, one another, and our neighbors, embodying the motto “Many Hearts, One Lord” and testifying to a holy commonwealth that transcends boundaries.
