Yes. We ask our guests to sign our guestbook the first time you attend. Our services are mostly contained in the service folder, with hymns sung from the Hymnary in the seat racks. Many weeks outside the summer, there is a Bible study before church at 8:55 AM. If you wish to learn more about our teachings and doctrine, see the FAQ “How do I become a member?”

Those who have placed themselves under our spiritual care through instruction and church membership may commune. We extend this also to those who have this same status at one of our fellowship congregations in the Evangelical Lutheran Synod (ELS) and in the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS). Those who wish to be guests at the altar need to speak to the pastor before the service begins.

Those interested in membership make an appointment with the parish pastor to go through the senior catechesis class, which is a summary of the teachings of the Bible and the historic practices of the evangelical Lutheran church. This class generally runs twice annually. Attendees who complete it may become members of the church.

Our worship is reverent toward God, respectful of his word, and dignified by the use of time-honored and meaningful Christian practice. The purpose is not to entertain worshipers, but for them to interact with God. The parts of our service come from the Bible through centuries of use. The congregation responds with hymns and phrases that are sung and spoken. This is the style of worship that some call "traditional". We believe that our worship unites heaven and earth through the presence of God in Jesus Christ.

Yes. The Holy Spirit works through his word, also among children - even if they do not yet fully understand all of the words that are being spoken and sung. It is important that they learn to take part in worship early in life so that it goes along with them into later life. Parents are encouraged to bring along a little snack or a book to occupy them in difficult moments, and to make use of the nursery room at the back of the church across from the drinking fountain if necessary. The nursery is equipped with audio from the service and a changing table.
