First Lutheran Church of Mitchell

About this church

First Lutheran Church of Mitchell worships at 9:30 a.m. Sunday in its main sanctuary at 411 North Duff Street. From September through May, a Wednesday service meets at 7 p.m. in the chapel. Both are available online, and Sunday worship is carried on Mitchell Telecom channel 112. Services include praise, Scripture, song, confession of faith, preaching, and the Lord's Supper, with worship understood as preparation to love and serve neighbors in daily life.

Holy Communion is celebrated on the first and third Sundays and corresponding Wednesdays. As an Evangelical Lutheran Church in America congregation, First Lutheran welcomes baptized Christians who believe Christ is present in the bread and wine. Additional Communion services reach several local senior-living and nursing communities during the month. The congregation began as a Norwegian Evangelical Lutheran church in 1888, changed worship from Norwegian to English in 1921, and dedicated its present church in 1950; stained glass, an education building, child learning center, and family life center followed. First Lutheran's values combine inspiring worship, gracious welcome, joyful service, bold witness, and lifelong formation. Visitors can begin with the stable Sunday service and use Wednesday only during the school-year schedule.
