Mount Olive Lutheran Church

Welcome to Mount Olive!

The members and staff of Mount Olive Lutheran Church welcome you to our website!

Mount Olive is a confessionally Lutheran congregation of the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod.  We are not ashamed of our Lutheran faith, which centers all that we believe and do squarely on Christ and Him crucified for us.  Because the LORD is present for us in Word and Sacrament, we conduct worship reverently, using the best liturgical traditions of the historic Christian Church which boldly proclaim this Gospel faith.  Our congregation regularly uses services, rites and hymns from the Lutheran Service Book.

Two services are held each Sunday and the Lord's Supper is celebrated on the first and third Sundays of each month.  Visitors to Mount Olive on these Sundays are asked to speak with Pastor Hein before coming forward for communion.  A service of Evening Prayer is also held on Wednesday evenings.
