Engaging people with God's love in everyday life

We're part of a bigger church family, the Lutheran Church of Australia.

Together we want to be a place where love comes to life.
We believe that God's love is for everyone, everywhere, and want you to see how his love comes to life in us – and in you.

Lutheran Church in Queensland - LCANZ

20 hours ago

Pastors, delegates, staff and visitors gathered together for Synod Saturday, which began with greetings from local politicians and representatives from the broader church in Qld. Prizes were bestowed upon our inaugural art competition winners, thanks to the generosity of the LLL (lll.org.au). We ended with a community dinner, during which we heard from speaker Michael Stolz, Executive Director of Australian Lutheran World Service (ALWS), and were entertained wonderfully by musicians from Faith Lutheran College, Redlands. Here are a selection of images from the day.#lcaqdsynod23 ... See MoreSee Less
