Traditional Worship Services
Sanctuary

Worship on Sunday at 9:00 & 11:00 a.m.

There are two traditional worship services in the sanctuary each Sunday morning.    At the 11:00 service on the first Sunday of the month, the Cathedral Choir sings for that worship.  Every Sunday has a cantor who sings portions of the liturgy in alternation with the congregation.  Most Sundays will have a vocalist or instrumentalist providing special music while the offering is being received.  

There is a liturgy provided in the Lutheran Book of Worship which guides our morning worship services.  Four scripture readings and a sermon form the basis of the Word each week.  Holy Communion is offered at all services on the first Sunday of each month, and after each service in the chapel on the other Sundays of the month.
 
The organ is the main musical instrument in the sanctuary, while the piano is used to accompany some of the choir anthems plus vocalists and instrumentalists.  There is a handbell choir called Heavenly Bells which plays usually once a month during the school year, as does the First Lutheran Chamber Orchestra.   Besides the Cathedral Choir, there is also a Men's Choir and a Women's Choir.

 

Celebration Worship Services

Celebration Hall
Worship on Sunday at 9:00 & 11:00 a.m.
 
Celebration worship is a high energy, eclectic and  ecumenical contemporary worship.
We blend a strong mixture of old favorites with cutting edge new music that is lyrically relevent along with tunes that are singable to the average person. Celebration  worship is purposefully non-liturgical, yet rooted in Lutheran tradition of "grace through faith" theology.  Celebration worship is intentionally participatory, and not performance oriented, and involves a wide variety of muscians and singers of all abilitites who are all volunteers.   We welcome and encourage believers of all faith backgrounds who desire to be fed, nurtured, empowered and encouraged in their own Christian faith journey. Our driving force in Celebration Worship is to bring people into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and help them to grow in their Christian Faith.
