About Us

Our History...
We began as a mission of the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod, with the support and encouragement of Abiding Savior Lutheran Church in Anderson, SC. Bible Studies started in 1982, growing into Vesper services, Worship services and a building of our own in 1990. An expansion to that building was completed in 2001.

Currently...
We continue to grow in the Lord! We have an average Sunday attendance of about 200 and offer a wide-range of programs and activities for all.

History & Practice

The LCMS traces its origins to 750 Saxon immigrants who came to Missouri in 1839 seeking freedom from religious rationalism in Germany. Today, the LCMS has 6,145 congregations throughout the nation and many missionaries around the world.

The word "Synod" comes from the Greek words that mean "walking together", because congregations voluntarily choose to belong to the Synod. LCMS congregations hold to a shared confession of Jesus Christ as taught in the Holy Scripture and the teachings of the faith as explained in the Lutheran Confessions. The practice of our churches is in line with the historic faith and is, generally, liturgical, although worship styles can vary from very traditional to contemporary.
