Meet the Team!
Our Ministers: Every member of the congregation is a minister. Each of us is given opportunities in daily life to be about the work of sharing God's gracious and redeeming word. Join us in the work of study, worship, fellowship, and works of justice.
The Church Council meets once a month. If you would like to come to a council meeting to observe, to share a perspective, or to participate in a discussion, feel free to join us. You can email the council as a whole at email: email: council@UniversityLutheran.Church
