We welcome everyone to First Evangelical Lutheran Church.
God’s purpose for our church is to share the love of Jesus Christ with our community and the world.
We are a small, but vibrant Christian Church in the Lutheran tradition. We are always looking to enhance our faith life. We are a member of the Eastern Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Canada. Our normal Sunday worship is a service of Holy Communion.
We welcome all baptized Christians to the Lord’s Table.
Please join us for worship Sunday mornings at 9:30.
688 Elm St. Port Colborne, Ontario L3K4R1
We share our ministry with St. Matthew’s Evangelical Lutheran Church in Welland.
Help is needed!
People get hungry in the summer too! Port Cares reports a decline in financial donations and a steady need for food and basic necessities for those they serve. You can donate on line at Get Involved (portcares.ca). In addition, phone-in donations are also welcome by calling 905-834-3629 . Port Cares’ website (https://www.portcares.ca/) also provides information about volunteer opportunities and about their outreach programs too.
Thank you for your kind consideration.
