Emanuel Lutheran Church

About this church

Emanuel Lutheran Church worships at 241 South Prospect Street in Marion with three Sunday options: an Evangelical Lutheran Worship service at 8:45 a.m., Praise Team worship at 11:15, and evening Eucharist at 7:00 p.m. Education and fellowship meet at 10:00. Both morning services stream on Facebook, and the early service is also carried by WMRN. Communion follows a rotating morning schedule and is celebrated every Sunday evening; the church says all are welcome at the table.

The congregation began as a late-19th-century mission and dedicated its first building in 1886. Its present Gothic sanctuary was completed in 1918 and includes antique-glass windows, natural stone tracery, and carved oak furnishings. That historic setting now supports both traditional and praise-oriented worship. Children and adults have Sunday School at 10:00 a.m., and a Thursday book study meets from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Emanuel also operates an early learning center and community outreach programs. Visitors can choose a service by style and use the livestream or radio broadcast to preview worship.
