About Salem Evangelical Lutheran Church
-
Christ Centered
Jesus Christ, revealed in Scripture, is the Lord of the Church and the only Savior of the World. The Holy Scriptures are the norm for all matters of our life and faith and the Lutheran Confessions, a faithful witness to the Scriptures.
Mission Driven
The Great Commission is our mission. We go taking the Gospel to the ends of the earth, making Disciples committed to Christ, baptizing in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, teaching people all that Jesus commands, trusting in His constant presence and power.
Traditionally Grounded
We are part of the faithful witness of the one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church across time and space. We are one with the creeds, forms, practices, Word and Sacrament ministry, and worship that are consistent with the scripture.
Congregationally Focused
The congregation is the front line for mission and ministry. As independent partners in ministry , we as a local congregation remain strong and work to be effective to accomplish Christs purposes.
