Baptism and Holy Communion
Lutherans accept two Sacraments as God-given means for penetrating the lives of people with his grace. Although they are not the only means of God's self-revelation, Baptism and Holy Communion are visible acts of God's love.
In Baptism, and especially evident in infant Baptism, God freely offers his grace and lovingly establishes a new community. It is in Baptism that people become members of Christ's Body on earth, the Church. In Holy Communion -- often called the Lord's Supper or the Eucharist -- those who come to the table receive in bread and wine the body and blood of their Lord. This gift is itself the real presence of God's forgiveness and mercy, nourishing believers in union with their Lord and with each other.
Holy Communion is celebrated at all weekend worship services. All who are baptized and believe Christ is truly present in the bread and wine, are welcome to share in our Lord=s Supper.
Church Membership
Discovery Class is for those who have an interest in membership in the church or studying Lutheran beliefs. The class provides spiritual growth, an opportunity to meet other people in the community, discover one=s spiritual gifts, and understand the ministry of the Lutheran Church. The 7-week class is offered four times a year. The class meets at the church on Sundays at 9:45 a.m. If one chooses to become a member of Christ Our Shepherd, he/she will be received into the church at the end of this very interesting and fun course.
Nursery
Nursery is offered for children ages 0 through 3 years on Sunday mornings. All adults who work in or assist with nursery have been trained in the prevention of Abuse.
