"WLLC Does the Work of Worship"
While the transition to in-person worship continues, WLLC bases decisions on the guidelines of the Oregon Health Authority as well as our Lutheran theology and practices of worship. This is what the pastors and leaders want you to know: Worship is the "work of the people" (the literal meaning of liturgy).
We need everyone to work with us in making what we do worshipful, Christ-centered, and honoring God whether we are in the sanctuary, in our homes, at the park or anywhere else. That work includes - continuing to come to worship and to invite others to worship with us; - being willing to be on worship teams as readers, voices, singers, videographers, online hosts, livechat participants, communion hosts, and eventually a presence with others; - trusting that we will recognize the needs of worshipers in their homes to not be only viewers of sanctuary worship but people addressed personally by their worship leaders; - trusting that we will create worship space in the sanctuary that is not just a studio that they enter and observe, but they get to worship side-by-side with others - trusting God's Spirit to guide all of us - members, pastors, lay leaders, teams, volunteers, musicians, tech coordinators, staff - into new and unknown places with the familiar call to "come and worship the Lord!" - asking questions, being curious, creating and sharing ideas from your experience, praying for all of us in the process. We base our decision-making process on these values and principles of WLLC: - all are welcome and should be included in the work of worship (based on our Welcome Statement) - we share the responsibility to invite all people into relationship with God and with God's people (based on our Mission Statement) - worshipers are active participants, not observers or viewers or studio guests - we seek to help everyone feel personally connected to God and one another in worship - we continue to offer the sacraments (Holy Communion and Baptism) on a regular basis in the variety of worship settings we have available as a means of God's grace - communication needs to be regular, multi-directional, and transparent |

Traditional Worship @ 8:15 am
This service utilizes the various orders for worship in the Evangelical Lutheran Worship (ELW) Hymnbook. We try to connect to our historical roots of liturgy and song, scripture and preaching, Holy Communion and sending as we gather to give praise to God.

Contemporary Worship @ 10:45 am
This service involves a Worship Team of instrumentalists (guitarists, percussionists, pianist) and singers of all ages who lead the congregational singing of more contemporary songs. The "liturgy" of this services tends to be more informal and involves people of all ages in many different ways.
