"Anyone who is to find Christ must
first find the church... Now the church is not wood or stone, but in the
company of people who believe in Christ"
- Martin Luther

Originally
established in 1890 by Swedish immigrants, today First Lutheran Church welcomes
people of every ethnic heritage. The people of First are ready to welcome you
and assist you in living faithful and productive lives. Hope is part of living,
yet there are things in life that destroy our hope: the break up of a
relationship, the death of a friend or a relative, the illness that attacks our
body.
As
Christians we have been given a new hope, one that brings us through the rough
and hopeless times. Hope is based on God's promise. God promises to love us and
help us through even our most desperate times. We celebrate hope in the waters
of baptism and in the bread and wine of communion. First Lutheran Church of
Kearny wants to share this hope with you.
If
you are looking for a place filled with hope; if you are looking for a welcome
place; if you are looking for a caring place and a listening place; if you are
looking for a place where you can discover and celebrate God's love, come home
to First Lutheran Church.
