Communion is celebrated on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of each month. This is a "non-traditional" format as Lutherans go. That means that it doesn't follow the liturgical forms of the church's traditions. Instead, it uses blends of "contemporary" music and words. This service is less formal and has a more casual flow to it. It is held year round. Beginning on the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend (last Sunday of May), and continuing through September, this service is held outdoors in the church's Pavilion. It is a delightful setting on those early Sunday mornings. Throughout the rest of the year (October through the Sunday before Memorial Day weekend, the service is held in the church using the same non-traditional format. | | Communion is celebrated on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of each month.
