Our Beliefs

What we believe about religious education:

The Bible and Lutherans teach that the religious education of children is the primary duty of parents and especially of the fathers. The church may assist the parents by establishing schools and other organizations to teach Christian doctrine. Young people and adults should continue to read and study the Bible privately and through Bible classes offered by the congregation. We all will want to nurture and strengthen the faith that is in us and our children. Such study of the Scriptures also strengthens the family, the church, and the nation.

Mark 10:14
Let the little children come to me [Jesus], and do not hinder them.

Ephesians 6:4
Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.

John 21:15
Jesus said, "Feed my lambs."

Acts 17:11
Now the Bereans were of more noble character than the Thessalonians, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true.

John 5:39
You diligently study the Scriptures because you think that by them you possess eternal life. Those are the Scriptures that testify about me [Jesus].

Proverbs 14:34
Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people.
