Welcome to Lutheran Church-Canada

Our Mission is to serve, strengthen, and equip congregations for bold, faithful, Christ-centred witness.

Our Vision is a unified, confessional body of believers fulfilling the Great Commission.

Truth

We value Scripture as the inerrant, written Word of God and the only rule and norm of faith and practice.

We Value Truth | Column by President Teuscher

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.

We Value Grace | Column by President Teuscher

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.

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.

We Value Trust | Column by President Teuscher

We value and respect one another as children of God, demonstrating love in all things because He first loved us.
