Greetings in the name of our Savior Jesus Christ!

You honor our congregation by visiting our website. Allow me to extend an invitation to further your exposure to Grace Lutheran Church by also honoring us with your presence with us on Sunday morning for Sunday School/Bible Class and the Divine Service.

While your presence is appreciated, our greatest honor and privilege is found in Christ's presence among us as He speaks to us through His Word, cleanses us through the waters of Holy Baptism, nourishes us with His body and blood in the Lord's Supper, and forgives our sins with His words of absolution.

That is why we gather together regularly - to receive Christ's gifts which we so desperately need. Forgiven, strengthened, and renewed by the Lord, we live holy lives whether we are assembled together or are living as Christians in our God-given vocations.

While Grace's focus is upon what God (the Father, Son and Holy Spirit) has done and continues to do for us, we also enjoy fellowship with one another, take part in various outreach programs, and serve the community with volunteer projects. These are but a few of our activities. I encourage you to discover others by searching this website. Even more will be found when you visit our congregation. All of these activities are a means to enjoy this life which the Lord has given us, to proclaim that eternal life is found in Jesus Christ alone, and to deliver the benefits of Christ's death and resurrection to a world that needs Him.

If you're new to the area and are interested in learning more about Grace, drop in and visit us or email me. If you've stumbled upon this site, but live far from mid-Missouri, I would be happy to field any questions you have and refer you to a congregation in your area if you so desire. My desire, as well as that of Grace, is that you be fed and nourished by Jesus Christ, who alone has suffered, died, and risen that you may be forgiven and thus have salvation and eternal life.

The Peace of the Lord be with you,

Pastor Kevin Golden
