Nativity Lutheran Church

About this church

Nativity Lutheran Church, part of the ELCA, worships on Brosterhous Road in Bend, Oregon, with two Sunday morning services. A contemporary service at 9:00 a.m. is led by a band with piano, guitar, drums and vocals, and a traditional liturgical service at 11:00 a.m. features piano, organ and choir and uses the Evangelical Lutheran Worship hymnal. Both services share the same sermon and include Holy Communion, and both are in person and livestreamed on YouTube, with replays and bulletins posted online. Young children can attend junior church or use a coloring table in the sanctuary.

Children's church runs during the 9:00 service from mid-September to early June, and a monthly Sunday Fun Day is held for families on the last Sunday afternoon. Middle schoolers join a partnership youth group on Sunday evenings, high school students take part in retreats and trips, and confirmation classes cover Scripture, Christian ethics and Luther's Small Catechism. Adults can join a women's Bible study that meets every other Wednesday, the Heretics Bible Study, a choir, and a game day each month. The church also serves the wider community through a food pantry on Tuesday afternoons and a wood bank that gathers firewood on Saturdays and distributes it by appointment to households in need from October through March. Confirm schedules on the website.
