About Spirit of Joy Lutheran Church

We are an open, affirming, and joy-filled faith family. We have been an ELCA congregation for 21 years, have over 200 members, and a weekend worship attendance of 115. We dedicated our church campus in 2012 after spending our early years as renters at a Seventh-Day Adventist Church and then a strip mall. We are very involved in social ministries (food bank, backpacks for food-insecure students, free clinic, clothing exchange, hot meals at the local mission, disaster relief, partnering with a new congregation, campus ministry, world hunger).

We are the new host congregation for the Religion and Science Lectures (each February). On our campus are housed a children's free clinic (open the first Saturday of each month from 9:00am to Noon) and a children's clothing exchange (open every Saturday from 9:00am to Noon).
All worship services, special events (like the ice cream social, fashion show & tea, and dinner musical), and ministries are open to the public. We have several ministry volunteers who are not members of our congregation.

BELIEFS

We are a credal church, professing the Apostles', Nicene, and Athanasian Creeds. As Lutherans, we believe in: Grace Alone. Word Alone. Faith Alone. We believe that salvation is a gift of God's grace, given because of who God is rather than how good we are.
Baptism: Both
Eternal Security: No, Can't Lose
Healing and Charismatic Gifts: Open But Cautious
We agree with these Doctrinal Statements: Apostles Creed Nicene Creed
