Who We Are

The ELCA is a community of faith that shares a passion for making positive change in the world. Our faith is built around a strong belief in God as made known to us in Jesus Christ. Through worship, service, and education, we practice our faith, grow our relationship with God, and experience God's grace in our lives. We also do our best to put our faith into action.

In today's complex world, we strive to make a difference in realistic ways. With nearly 10,500 congregations across the U.S., Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands, and the nearly five million members, we welcome you to experience this community of faith.

What We Believe

Our faith tradition is based on a life-transforming story. The ELCA's story is both ancient (catholic) and timely. It's a story of a powerful and patient God who has boundless love for all people of the world, who brings justice for the oppressed. It's a story of Jesus Christ who brought us salvation and can change lives. It's a story that brings comfort and strength to people who today live in modern, often unsettling times. As Lutherans we believe Christ alone is our salvation by grace alone through faith alone.

We the people and pastor of Ziegels Lutheran Church invite you to come and worship with us. Here you will find a welcome home. We extend a special welcome to all visitors. Those who attend this congregation have committed their time and resources so that the message of the Gospel and the work of the Kingdom can be carried out.
