Members of Our Saviour
"Beloved, let us love on another, for love is from God." 1 John 4:7 KJV
Members of Our Saviour
When we first came to Our Saviour thirteen years ago, the first thing we saw and felt was the warmth and love between the members and Pastor and it made us feel right at home. We had been at our previous church in California for 37 years and it was hard to leave. But we were welcomed right in and felt that this was where God wanted us to be.
We have been here now for 13 years and more than ever we know this is where God wants us to be. Now what we understand is that it is not the people in the church, however important to us they may be, but it is the true word of God that we hear Sunday after Sunday in church and Bible classes that has made this church so outstanding to us. We know that we will never hear anything but the true word of God as taught from God's Word, the Bible. We are so grateful that God directed us to Our Saviour Lutheran Church.

I have been attending Our Saviour for one year and recently became a member.
They say that when you pray for God's guidance, you better be ready to listen. I truly believe that He has led me to Our Saviour Lutheran Church.
There are a lot of "country club" or "feel good" churches around where you can go and hear what you want to hear. That isn't what I want. I want a pastor to preach the Law and the Gospel, lead me to what He wants, and be able to answer my questions about the Bible. I feel that is exactly what I hear and receive at Our Saviour. Plus, I want Christ to be the most important reason for being there.
We have a school and when the children are in church they are well behaved and respectful. It is a pleasure to see them. I love it when they sing because it reminds me of when my children used to sing in church. Music means a lot to me and we have wonderful, meaningful hymns.
I feel I am really growing in my faith since I have become a member, and that is important to me. I also feel that I am able to witness to others more easily about my faith, and that is important to God!

Our wonderful pastors have been very diligent in increasing my knowledge of the Holy Scriptues and have increased and strengthened my faith in our dear Lord Jesus Christ. And I can count on my church family to be thoughtful and caring.

"We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God." Acts 14:22b
This passage really has an effect on me. Mainly because once I leave this school (Our Saviour) I will have to face the devil, world, and my own flesh. But I know as I journey forward in life, I will have to face so many hardships and obstacles that will try to put a road block in my faith. But I do have one thing, one hope, and one Redeemer to help me enter the kingdom, and that is Jesus, my Savior. He has such an impact on my life, he is the one who rescued me and took away all those hardships and the guilt of my sin.
