WHO ARE WE?
Our History
A “mission in formation,” Faith Lutheran Church was born in 2019 as a result of a split with another large Wilmington area Lutheran church. Prompted by the Holy Spirit, we decided to reclaim our faith and build something new. The resulting Faith Lutheran community strives to be transparent and congregation-focused, coming together in the strength of our faith and our passion for helping others.
When you come to Faith Lutheran, you are free to…
- Assemble around God’s Holy Word and precious sacraments — without the
distractions that sometimes come from much larger congregations. - Focus on Christ’s commands to love and serve God and our neighbor through weekly worship and our domestic, foreign, and local ministries.
- And become intimately united with a like-minded group of Lutherans bonded together by a mission of faith, discipleship, and service.
What about our future? We are not sure where God is leading us, but we love who we have become and hope to be a blessing to our community in Wilmington, NC.
Our Mission
The two-fold mission of Faith Lutheran Church is to (1) invite people to the discipleship of Jesus Christ by proclaiming the Gospel and (2) obey our Lord’s command to love God and neighbor by serving local, national, and global communities with our time, talents, and resources.
Ministries & Involvement
At Faith Lutheran Church, we believe growing in our faith is a team effort. We do not rely on the capabilities of a single pastor. Every member plays a vital role in our worship services and mission projects.
There are many ways for our members to become involved with our church services – as a lector (reader), communion server, worship musician, choir member, and more!
OR, you can always participate in one of our many ongoing mission projects. Some of our
existing ministries include…
- Lutheran Bible Translators
- NALC Disaster Response
- Nourish NC
- Mother Hubbard’s Cupboard
- Domestic Violence Shelter and Services, Inc.
- Congo Mission International, Inc.
- SMI Haiti
