BELONGING
Pastor Pranschke leads you through a short introductory video on what it means to a Christian and in particular a Lutheran. This is a series of five short videos.
The video above is the first in the series. You may click here to go directly to the page where you will find the other videos. We hope this is a good introduction to help you on your Christian journey. Please reach out to the Pastor if you have any questions regarding your faith. You may email him here.
