Lutheran Church-International
Welcome in the name of Jesus Christ!
Serving the people of God since 1967.
Confessional
The LC-I preaches,
teaches, and
confesses the Gospel
of Jesus Christ as
faithfully witnessed by
the Augsburg
Confession of 1530
and the Book of
Concord.
Orthodox
The LC-I maintains a
traditional, faithful
understanding of
Lutheranism within
the church catholic.
Our worship styles,
however, range from
historic to
contemporary.
Ecumenical
The LC-I will join in
ministry with faithful
Christians globally in
external, or public,
work. We will work
internally with those
church bodies with
whom theological
cooperation is
possible.
Evangelical
The LC-I is a church of
the Great Commission.
We seek to make
disciples of all nations,
baptized whose who
confess Jesus is Lord,
and welcome all who
seek a church home
within our parishes and
missions.
The Lutheran Church-International was established in 1967 as the
International Lutheran Fellowship. Today, just as at its founding, there is a
strong focus on ministry, ecumenical relationships, and evangelistic work
at all levels.
