WHO WE ARE
". . we invite all people into a trusting relationship with God through Jesus Christ."

OUR MISSION

That's the mission, the purpose and the focus of ministry at West Linn Lutheran Church for over 50 years.  We express that ministry in a number of ways and invite others from varying religious backgrounds and diverse spiritual experiences to accept the challenges and experience the joy that faith in Jesus Christ brings.

Whether it's quality nursery care for small children, a vibrant Sunday School experience, a lively week of Vacation Bible School, a quiet Good Friday worship, a memorable Christmas Candlelight service or an inspiring Sunday morning, you are invited to share in the vitality, the enthusiasm and the personal fulfillment that participation at West Linn Lutheran offers. 

This web site describes West Linn Lutheran's witness and mission in action.  Opportunities abound for your consideration and participation.  We invite you to connect with West Linn Lutheran Church today.

50 YEARS IN MINISTRY 

Our congregation is a community of faith where people come together to worship, learn, love and care for one another. Visitors are always welcome at West Linn Lutheran Church. Whether you're looking for a new church home or just visiting the local area, we invite you to stop by and worship with us. You will find a warm, welcoming and caring environment!

In 1961, the Lutheran church conducted a survey of the West Linn area and found the need for a new church.  On February 24, 1963, we officially became a congregation, and we dedicated the building on May 12th.  We immediately experienced growth due to the excellent visibility of the building and our welcoming invitation to all.
