Welcome to Faith Lutheran Church
Our church is a traditional church in the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod (LCMS). The Missouri Synod teaches and responds to the love of the Triune God. Our church is a special place where we share God's word, fellowship, and outreach to our community--we are a family that welcomes all to share Christian values and the belief in Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We have many opportunities this Advent season to share fellowship and the Word of God.
We decorated the church for Christmas on November 24th.

BACKPACK SNACKS
We are resuming our collection for Backpack Snacks. Through the school year, we support the efforts of Trinity Baptist as they make bags of snacks for Madison City students who may not have food on the weekends. We are currently collecting fruit cups and individual mac & cheese cups. The collection bin is in the fellowship hall. Thank you for your support!
HATS FOR THE HOMELESS & BABIES, TOO
It’s time again for Hats for the Homeless, and Red Hats for Newborns. Yarn and patterns are available for both projects, funded by Thrivent. We are also collecting winter coats and warm clothing for the homeless. These projects will run for the fall and winter months. Red Hats for Newborns is sponsored by the American Heart Association. If you have questions, contact Charlene or Susan.
