Resurrection Lutheran Church

About this church

Resurrection Lutheran Church in Ankeny places Scripture and the Lord’s Supper at the center of worship, sharing Holy Communion every week. Its school-year schedule lists services Sundays at 8:15 and 10:45 a.m., with traditional hymns and liturgy alongside a guitar-led contemporary service. The homepage currently advertises a 9:00 a.m. Sunday gathering, indicating a seasonal schedule; visitors near the summer-to-school-year transition should confirm the current time on the official worship page.

The congregation’s welcome is unusually specific, extending full participation in worship, Communion, membership, leadership, teaching, and service regardless of age, language, race, immigration status, disability, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity, political values, incarceration history, or economic circumstances. Ministries serve children from birth through elementary school, and Vacation Bible School combines music, Bible stories, science experiments, games, and prayer. Resurrection describes discipleship through Christ-centered learning, compassionate community, generous sharing, and faithful worship. For families and individuals comparing Ankeny Lutheran churches, its distinguishing traits are weekly open Communion, both hymnal and guitar-led music, an explicit all-people welcome, and children’s formation shaped to be both active and inviting.
