Beliefs

   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We believe in the Triune God–Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We partake of two sacraments–Holy Baptism and Holy Communion. We proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. We believe in the Gospel of Christ as the way to salvation for all who believe. All who believe that Jesus Christ is present with the bread and wine are welcome to partake in Holy Communion. (Our communion bread is gluten-free, and we offer both wine and juice in the communion tray.)

Every Sunday in worship, we hear God’s word from the Bible, confess our faith according to the Apostles or Nicene Creed, pray as Jesus taught, and come to the Lord’s Table to receive the mercies that the Triune God promises. During the week, we strive to live by faith, serving others freely and generously in all that we do.

For more information about our beliefs or for answers to your questions about faith, please email us at tripolilutherans@gmail.com or call our church office or leave us a message at 319-882-3579.
