Abiding Peace Lutheran Church

Abiding Peace Lutheran Church Abiding Peace is an RIC community of welcome and grace, wherever you are on your journey of faith. We hope you will experience God's grace and love with us.

Abiding Peace is a Christian community committed to being a safe place to grow in faith. Whether you grew up Lutheran or have never darkened the doors of a church, know that you are most welcome here. The founder of the Lutheran church confessed that we are all both sinners and saints, and we know this to be true. We all fail to live the way we want, and we are all still welcomed into God's grace and called beloved.

✨ “Let’s shine God’s light from within”
💛 Reconciling in Christ
🌈 A visible message of inclusion
🤝 A community helping bring Mount Olive Pride to life

We’re so grateful for Pastor Serena’s leadership and for the congregation’s care, commitment, and hard work in making this celebration possible.
