Our Beliefs

  1. We believe that the Bible is God's Word and is the only source and guide for faith, doctrine and life.
  2. We accept the Lutheran Church's confession of faith as being in conformity with God's Word.
  3. We believe that a congregation is an assembly of believing Christians where the Word of God is preached in truth and purity and where the sacraments are administered in accordance with the Lord's institution.
  4. Recognizing the clear distinction made in the Scriptures between the children of God and the children of the world, we believe in a personal experience of salvation in Christ.
  5. We conduct our services using a simple order of worship with a sermon, based on the Word of God, which occupies the most prominent place in the service.
  6. We encourage the use of lay persons in spreading the Gospel and furthering the work of the Kingdom of God.
  7. Through Sunday School, Confirmation Instruction, Bible Camp, Lutheran Brethren Youth Fellowship, and Lutheran Brethren Youth Ministries, we seek to teach our youth to be followers of Christ.
  8. We believe in a strong evangelistic emphasis and with other congregations, support mission work in Canada, the United States, Cameroon, Chad, Japan, and Taiwan.
  9. We are aware of the value of Christian education and with other congregations sponsor Lutheran Brethren Seminary, Lutheran Center for Christian Learning and Hillcrest Lutheran Academy, all in Fergus Falls, MN.
  10. As a church and as individual members of Praise Christian Fellowship, we are actively seeking to give persons of all ages an opportunity to enter into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
