Our Story
In March 2010, a group of charter members took a leap of faith to plant a new church in
our area, rooted in the Word of God and grounded in the Lutheran Confessions.
Our congregation first gathered for worship at the Wyndham Hotel in Peachtree City
before moving to a storefront space that served as our sanctuary for nearly ten years.
Throughout those years, God has been faithful, graciously blessing our church with
spiritual growth and a growing community.
Today, we worship in our own church home off Highway 34 in Sharpsburg, dedicated on
October 27, 2019.
