| Worship at Como Park Lutheran
|

|
All are welcome!
· From September through May, Sunday worship services are at 8:30 & 10:45 a.m.
· From Memorial Day through Labor Day, summer worship hours are 8:30 &10:00 a.m.
Worship at Como Park Lutheran Church is liturgical, participatory, sacramental, Christ and Gospel centered, biblically grounded, musically rich, and identifiably Lutheran. CPLC has an established reputation for these things.
The celebration of worship in music here has a rich tradition of organ and piano, hand bells and choirs, soloists and ensembles, congregational singing, as well as occasional orchestras and praise bands. The range of hymnody runs from children’s songs to cantatas and requiems. We celebrate all of these things. Less engrained but still present in our Sunday morning worship culture, are world-music, camp, current Sunday school, Christian-pop and praise sounds. Our aim in worship planning is to bring all of these musical and textual resources to bear in a way that honors and speaks to the text, the day and the season of the church year in ways that enrich and deepen our worship experiences.
Holy Communion is celebrated on the second and fourth Sundays of each month. All who believe that Christ is truly present in the sacrament are welcome to commune.
Weddings are available to members and non-members alike. For a down-loadable handbook and forms, click here.
