Welcome to Lutheran Church-Canada
Our Mission
Our mission is to serve, strengthen, and equip congregations for bold, faithful, Christ-centred witness.
Our Vision
Our vision is to be a unified, confessional body of believers fulfilling the Great Commission.
Our Values
Truth. We value Scripture as the inerrant, written Word of God and the only rule and norm of faith and practice.
Grace. We value Grace as the free and undeserved gift of God through Christ Jesus which empowers believers to show forgiveness and mercy to others.
Unity. We value unity in doctrine, proclamation, and practice, as expressed in Scripture and the Lutheran Confessions.
Vocation. We value each person’s unique God-given gifts, talents, and abilities, enabling them to witness Christ’s redeeming love in all aspects and stations of life.
Sanctity of Life. We value life as a gift of God to be cherished, nurtured, and protected from conception to natural death.
Trust. We value telling one another the truth in love, doing what we say we will do, and stewarding all ministry resources to the glory of God.
Relationships. We value and respect one another as children of God, demonstrating love in all things because He first loved us.
