Palm Sunday
| Though He was in the form of God He did NOT count equality with God something to be grasped but humbled himself and became obedient unto death, even death on the cross…” Philippians 5:2-8 |
NEW Saturday Series!
ORLC will begin a year-long study of Paul’s epistles, beginning with the study of Romans containing the fundamental doctrines of the Lutheran church and Christian faith. Our goal is to strongly encourage your in-depth reading and understanding of the Scriptures by ‘inwardly digesting’ God’s message to you. Paul’s writings contain the direct linkage of Old Testament law and history with the New Testament grace and truth of the Gospel in Christ’s birth, death, and resurrection.

The Result of the Gospel
Lenten Worship Service
Wednesday, April 2, 2025
Supper: 6:00 p.m.
Worship: 7:00 p.m.
When Jesus reached out and touched the bier of the widow’s dead son, the funeral procession was stopped dead in its tracks. Like the prophets Elijah and Elisha before Him, Jesus raised the only child of a woman in need. When Jesus touches death, it can only mean life. Above all, in Christ’s cross, He destroyed death by His death (2 Timothy 1:10). Christ touched death, and death was overcome by His resurrection life. When our sin and its deadly consequences are touched by Jesus in Baptism, we are united to His death and resurrection. So we are now “dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus” (Romans 6:11).
What is Outreach Ministry at ORLC?
Outreach Ministry at ORLC is our looking beyond ourselves to the people around us and sharing the love of Christ as we serve and connect with our community.
Daily Outreach Devotions
In helping you to connect with God every day and in every way, we’d love to provide you with encouragement and inspiration to grow closer to God daily by offering you prayers, messages, Psalms and Scripture.
Radio Broadcast Ministry
Through Faith alone, by Scripture alone, in Christ alone, by Grace alone!
The Bible tells us that we are saved by grace through faith in Christ Jesus and not by our own efforts or works (Ephesians 2:8-9). Grace Alone. Faith Alone.
As Christians saved by God’s Grace, we are compelled to share this Good News freely. At Our Redeemer Lutheran Church we are proclaiming the Gospel worldwide 24/7 over our internet radio station: LIVE365:Lutheran. People of all ages can hear the Word of God taught, preached, and sung in English—with plans to include other languages in the future. It is our prayer that many will come to faith, through the work of the Holy Spirit, by listening and accepting God’s marvelous Grace!

The Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod
Founded in 1847
The roots of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod trace back to 1847, when Saxon and other German immigrants established a new church body in America, seeking the freedom to practice and follow confessional Lutheranism.
Initial members, which included 12 pastors representing 14 congregations from Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Michigan, New York and Ohio, signed the church body’s constitution on April 26, 1847, at First Saint Paul Lutheran Church in Chicago, Ill.
Originally named The German Evangelical Lutheran Synod of Missouri, Ohio and Other States, the name was shortened to The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod in 1947 on the occasion of our 100th anniversary.
Over the years, hundreds of books chronicling the Synod’s rich history have been written. One of the most comprehensive is Zion on the Mississippi.
