About
United Lutheran Church exists to joyfully welcome all people to make the good news of Jesus Christ visible.
We gather around story and meal on Sunday mornings at 10:45 a.m.
Throughout the week we gather as community to share lives, stories, prayers, and the activity of the Spirit at First Tuesday Table Talk at Northwinds Gallery and Gypsy Java Cafe and at Wednesday Evening Bible Study and Evening Prayer. We serve and welcome neighbors through a myrid of ministries. We are passionate about the care and use of God’s creation.
You are welcome to be curious about what it means to be Christian, Lutheran, or join us so we can serve the neighborhood together.
THEOLOGY
At the core, Lutheran theology is a theology of love. The love of God who gives the free gift of grace to all people and the responsive love and joy of all people to a dynamic, creative God who continues to create possibilities of beloved community. Out of this love and joy, Lutherans respond in service to the neighbor through ministries, programs, friendships and advocacy.
HISTORY
United Lutheran Church began in June of 2017 as a uniting of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church, St. Andrew Lutheran Church, and Zion Lutheran Church. Intentional about forming a new community and listening to the Spirit’s leadings, United Lutheran Church gathers in the cooperative space of the Ministries at North Pointe building. Each of these legacy congregations made the good news visible in the Racine community for generations.
