Emmanuel Lutheran church

ministries

Emmanuel offers many programs for all ages, children through adults.

Music ministry


Our seasoned music director, Diane Bahr oversees Emmanuel’s Praise Band, Bell Choir and the Adult Choir Ministries.  Our Praise Band meets weekly and presently leads our 11:00 AM Praise Style worship service every Sunday morning.

 

Emmanuel’s Bell Choir meets every Wednesday at 5:30 PM in the church Sanctuary.  All experience levels are welcome and Diane Bahr can mold you into a first rate ringer.  The Bell Choir plays at all of our special holiday programs and is often featured during regular worship services.

 

Our Adult Choir meets every Saturday morning at 9:30 AM in our sanctuary.  If you think you can’t sing, Diane Bahr will take your voice and tune it to perfection.  If you are interested in joining any or all of Emmanuel’s Music Ministry teams, please contact Diane Bahr by clicking on the following link to send Diane an e-mail:  Music Director Diane Bahr

 

Fellowship Ministry

 

Emmanuel’s Fellowship Committee serves to coordinate Sunday morning fellowship hour as well as social activities and assisting or providing for member needs during special occasions such as weddings, funerals, Confirmations, and Baptisms.  If you are interested in joining this ministry team please contact the church office.

 

American Sign
Language Ministry

 

Emmanuel offers interpreted Worship services and ministry programs for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing upon request.  To assure these programs are interpreted and meet your communication needs, we ask for advance notification to ensure the availability of an interpreter.  Programs can be interpreted in ASL, Transliteration or Signed English. You may contact Mark Terry by email.

 

 

LYFE

 

Michelle May and Mark Terry lead our LYFE Ministry team here at Emmanuel. Lutheran Youth Fellowship of Emmanuel  is a forum for young people to express their faith, through fellowship, education, mission work, and service.  Our youth ministry is very active and meets quite regularly.  We have two programs available at Emmanuel.   The first group is for our Junior High students in grades 6 - 8.  And, second we have our Senior High youth in grades 9 - 12.  Each group has the opportunity to participate in youth retreats, Lock-Ins, Youth Congress, fellowship with other LCMS churches in our area, provide outreach to the various service and support agencies, community service projects and sometimes we get together just for fun.  Drop Michelle a line to find out more about our Youth Ministry.

Our ministries extend beyond our church walls.  In this effort, we are
striving to support separate missions that allow several avenues
to connect to our congregational family.
