We would like to welcome you to our website.  Whether you are just surfing the web, checking on worship times at ALC, or looking for a new church home, we rejoice that you are visiting our web page. We believe, teach, and confess that the primary mission of the church is to make disciples of every nation by bearing witness to Jesus Christ through the preaching of the Gospel and the administration of the sacraments. 

Other necessary activities of the church, such as ministering to the physical needs of our fellow man, are to serve the church’s primary mission and its goal that all will believe and confess Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.


Thank you for visiting us…..do come again…..and God Bless You!
