About The Lutheran Church of the Resurrection

 

 

A Brief History of LCR

The Lutheran Church of the Resurrection was initially organized in 1977 with 34 charter member families. Pastor Bob Pierson first met with the families as they sought to organize and form a new congregation. This infant congregation was served during its first year by pastor Bill Perry, who had just left his role as a navy chaplain, and was residing in the Atlanta area. Sunday worship services met in the chapel at Mt. Bethel United Methodist Church until the current building was dedicated on Reformation Sunday in 1980.

The congregation "called" its first full-time pastor in December of 1978, Pastor Kent Lang. He served LCR until his retirement in August 1995. We still enjoy 'special appearances' by Reverend Lang from time to time.

In October, 2006 LCR celebrated the installation of Reverend David Helfrich.

Knowing that we are loved by God through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, we:

  • Celebrate the real presence of Christ in our lives.
  • Make Christ’s presence known through engaging liturgies, uplifting music and powerful sermons.
  • Acknowledge the grace of God and the power of the Holy Spirit.

Growing in our personal relationships with Jesus Christ, we:

  • Offer an intentional ministry that integrates Worship, Discipleship and Outreach.
  • Equip our members to use their spiritual gifts and become servant leaders.
  • Give generously of our time, financial resources and abilities to build God’s Kingdom.

Going out into the world in the name of Jesus Christ and intentionally developing relationships with others, we:

  • Serve people in need in our community and around the world as our neighbors.
  • Pray that the people we serve will grow in their relationship with God.
  • Tell the people we serve that God loves them and invite them to grow in their relationship with God and Jesus Christ.
