Living Waters Lutheran Church is committed to welcoming and equipping all who seek to discover and express God’s love. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we are active online and are planning in-person activities in line with public-health guidelines. For daily updates and spiritual uplift, find us on Facebook!
#LivingWatersLive
We are phasing in in-person activities while remaining very much open online, in prayer, and in service. We are providing many ways to be church. Click here for updates and details.
To keep our community safe, we ask that everyone attending Living Waters in-person events wear a mask, refrain from hugs and handshakes, and observe a 6-foot social distance.
View our services, prayers, Bible studies, and other videos on our YouTube page.
