WHO WE ARE

We are a church of sinners working to mature as disciples of Christ while helping others discover the beauty of becoming disciples of Christ. We are a Lutheran church founded in 2015 in Fayetteville, AR.

2015

THE BEST IS YET TO COME

The first service at Emmanuel Lutheran Church was celebrated on February 9, 2015. Prior to that day, God’s Holy Spirit inspired faithful Lutheran Christians to gather and begin prayerful consideration of starting a new church. As they met, prayed, and planned, they experienced the presence of God, the leading of God, and the provision of God. He provided a space for worship and fellowship. He provided initial pastoral leadership and musicians. Each charter member will tell you how excited they were to come together, share life together, and share mission and ministry together. In time, God led a full-time pastor to Emmanuel Lutheran, and God has been creating opportunities for us to love and serve ever since. We find great comfort knowing that when God is ready, He assists us to be ready to walk in ministry with Him.

OUR MISSION  |  Where we're going

At Emmanuel Lutheran, our mission is to love God and love people. 

"And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.” - Mark 12:30-31

OUR VISION  |  How we get there

We accomplish God's mission for us by living as Christ's disciples.  Disciples worship, pray, learn, mentor, serve, give, and invite.

"Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in[a] the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” - Matthew 28:19-20

OUR CORE VALUES  |  How we live while we travel

We follow these core values - we love like Jesus loves, serve like Jesus serves, and we will be humble, grateful, obedient, and united.

NALC CORE VALUES

Emmanuel Lutheran is a North American Lutheran Church. Take a look below at our denomination's core values.

CHRIST-CENTERED

Jesus Christ, revealed in Scripture, is the Lord of the Church and the only Savior of the world. The Holy Scriptures are the norm for all matters of our life and faith and the Lutheran Confessions, a faithful witness to the Scripture.

MISSION DRIVEN

The Great Commission is our only mission. We go taking the Gospel to the ends of the earth, making disciples committed to Christ, baptizing in the name of the Father, Son, Holy Spirit, teaching people all the Jesus commands, trusting in His constant presence and power.

TRADITIONALLY GROUNDED

We are a part of the faithful witness of the one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church across time and space. We endorse the creeds, forms, practices, Word and Sacrament ministry and worship that are consistent with the Scriptures.

CONGREGATIONALLY FOCUSED

The congregation is the front line for mission and ministry. As interdependent partners, we strengthen every local congregation to make it the most effective instrument possible for accomplishing Christ's purpose.
