About Immanuel Lutheran Church
Immanuel Lutheran Church has been rooted in the Joplin community since 1897, serving families across southwest Missouri as a congregation of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod. We are a confessional Lutheran church that holds firmly to the historic Christian faith as taught in Scripture and summarized in the Lutheran Confessions.
Our Sunday worship is traditional and liturgical, with services at 8:00 AM and 10:30 AM, and Bible Class and Sunday School at 9:15 AM. Whether you are a lifelong Lutheran or exploring the Christian faith for the first time, you will find a warm, multigenerational congregation ready to welcome you.
Immanuel is more than a Sunday morning church. Our ministries include Martin Luther School (an accredited PreK–8 Christian day school), an active youth ministry for students in grades 5–12, and family programming throughout the year. We also operate a nationally recognized Comfort Dog ministry and maintain a long-standing commitment to disaster relief and community service right here in Joplin.
Pastor Christopher Ramstad leads our congregation alongside a dedicated staff. Our mission: Grounded in Christ, Guided by Grace, Growing to Serve.
We'd love to have you worship with us.

BELIEFS
We believe, teach, and confess the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testament as the inspired and inerrant Word of God — the only rule and norm of all doctrine and life. As a congregation of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod, we stand on the historic Lutheran Confessions as found in the Book of Concord (1580), including the three Ecumenical Creeds (Apostles', Nicene, and Athanasian), Luther's Small and Large Catechisms, and the Augsburg Confession.
We believe in one God — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We teach that salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. We practice infant Baptism as a means of grace through which God creates and strengthens faith, and we celebrate the Lord's Supper every Sunday, believing that Christ's body and blood are truly present in, with, and under the bread and wine for the forgiveness of sins.
Our worship is liturgical, rooted in the historic Western rite, and we use the Lutheran Service Book as our primary worship resource.
