University Lutheran Church

About this church

University Lutheran Church in Eau Claire gathers for Sunday worship at 10:00 a.m. The service follows a traditional liturgy built around Word (preaching, singing, praying) and Sacrament, with baptism and weekly communion. Gluten-free bread, wine, and non-alcoholic grape juice are offered. The music draws on a variety of styles and liturgical settings. Services are live-streamed on YouTube. The congregation is a member of the ELCA and has close ties to the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, where it began as a Lutheran student group and was chartered as a parish in 1974.

During the academic year, Wednesday evenings begin with Evening Prayer at 5:30 p.m., with communion on the first and third Wednesdays. Other Wednesdays are used for group building, learning, guest speakers, special events, or service. A free meal follows at 6:00 p.m. when classes are in session the next day. Sunday fellowship begins at 11:00 a.m. and Bible study at 11:15 a.m., and a Queer & Affirmed spirituality group meets Mondays at 5:00 p.m. Campus Ministry combines the Lutheran Student Association with the congregation and includes people who are not students. Ministry areas include worship, welcome, service, and learning programs for all ages. A monthly newsletter is posted online. The office is open Monday through Thursday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Confirm times on the website, since the schedule follows the semester.
