Our Saviour celebrates Holy Communion every Sunday in the historic Lutheran liturgical tradition of the Common Service. As a member congregation of the Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod, she joyfully confesses the prophetic and apostolic Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments to be the Word of God, and she adheres without reservation to the Book of Concord of 1580 as being in full accord with the Scriptures.

Our Saviour Church is under the pastoral care of the Rev’d Charles L. McClean.
