Holiday Worship Thanksgiving 2020 Plans now are to not have an in-person Thanksgiving Eve worship service, instead recording a shorter service for viewing via our website. This is for our health and safety in the pandemic due to the growing number of Covid-19 cases in Freeborn County, and the out-of-town guests who might attend. We can still have thankful hearts, words, actions and worship at home—Thanks be to God.

Our FLC Worship & Music Team has plans underway to have an outdoor, drive-through worship experience in our parking lot, instead of the in-person large gathering for Christmas Eve. This, too, is for our health and safety in the pandemic due to the growing number of Covid-19 cases in Freeborn County, and the out-of-town guests who might attend. We also encourage everyone to celebrate and worship at home with Christian Christmas carols, Bible Readings, generosity and prayer.

THE MISSION OF FIRST LUTHERAN CHURCH IS: TO GATHER, EQUIP, AND EMPOWER PEOPLE TO JOYFULLY DO 1

CHRISTS WORK.
