About Incarnation Lutheran Church
Incarnation Lutheran Church is a welcoming, fully inclusive community, acting in service to all of God’s people for over 50 years. We accomplish this mission most effectively by pursuing four different strategies that we call the Four Faces of Mission.
People at ILC feel like they are part of a friendly, caring family. At Incarnation we hear repeatedly how much God loves us, just as we are. We love being able to be of service in a wide variety of ways. We are grateful to be a community of people who love God and who love our fellow humans. We have a wonderful music program, which greatly enhances our worship experience. And we are working towards a RIC (Reconciling in Christ) designation.
