Our Mission
Joined by a common faith in Christ our Savior and called to be ambassadors of His gospel, Resurrection Evangelical Lutheran Church has both a local and worldwide mission:
- The nurturing of our congregational members, of all ages, through vigorous and consistent use of God’s Word and sacraments and ministries of mercy, and serving both the spiritual and physical needs of the community by actively reaching the lost through our witnessing and works of mercy.
- The supporting of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod’s worldwide law and gospel outreach through our prayers and financial gifts.
What the Bible and Lutherans Teach
by Harold A. Essmann
Nearly 500 years ago, the Christian church was corrupted by many false teachings.
A man named Martin Luther led people back to the teachings of the Bible. His work, and that of his friends, is called the Reformation. Through Luther God restored the church to purity of doctrine and a new life of faith in Christ.
The doctrines of the Lutheran Church are not new.
They are the teachings of the Bible. Thus the Lutheran Church is not a new church.
It is not a sect or cult.
It is a church whose teaching is based on the words written by the prophets of the Old Testament and the apostles of the New Testament. The Bible tells us about Jesus Christ.
