I'm New
Welcome!
Christ Our Savior Lutheran Church is a warm caring fellowship of Faith, Family and Worship. Our congregation, which has grown to over 300, strives to communicate God's awesome gift of love to our ever-changing world. We are a collection of natives of East Tennessee and transplants from other parts of the country who now call East Tennessee our home and share a common faith in Jesus Christ Our Lord and Savior. Values, love, prayer, hope…. all of this can be found at Christ Our Savior Lutheran Church.
Worship Times
Traditional Service-
Sundays at 8:30 am
Our early morning service follows a format that uses the Liturgy of the Lutheran Missouri Synod that typically includes the Invocation,
Confession and Absolution, Hymns of Praise, The Word of God readings from the Old and New Testaments of the Bible, Readings from The Gospel, The Sermon, The Creed, The Offertory, Prayers, Distribution of the Elements (Communion occurs at this service the first and third Sundays of the month) and the Benediction. Sermon Themes generally follow the Lutheran Church Calendar. Hymns generally come from the Lutheran Service Book (LSB). The Choir generally attends this service and leads the congregation in song.
Blended Service-
Sundays at 11:00 am
Our late morning service is like the first service but differs in the music that is played and sung. The song choices are more contemporary and are licensed for use by CCLI. Church musicians are featured often using woodwind and stringed instruments and may include percussion and digital instruments. Soloists will lead the congregation in song. (Communion occurs at this service the second and fourth Sundays of the month).
Location
We are located ½ mile west of the intersection of Hwy 444 and Hwy 72 in Loudon County Tn at 260 Wade Rd West, Loudon, Tennessee.
What To Expect
As you prepare for the visit, wear what you please. As you will see there will be a wide variety of styles and colors. Our Pastor will usually be robed at the first service but casually dressed at our second service.
Our church consists of two buildings, our Worship Center and our Christian Ministry Center which are joined by an under-roof breezeway with signs that will show you how to get around. We are known as “the friendly church” so don’t worry.
When you enter, you'll be greeted and then given an order of service by an Usher. Enter the Sanctuary and find a place that feels comfortable.
Our services are also projected onto the wall so they are easy to follow. Hymnals can be found in front of you. Music, scripture readings, the Pastor’s message and prayer are all parts of our services.
Between our two services you are invited for fellowship in our Christian Ministry Center. Enjoy the fellowship and have coffee, tea and sweets followed by a Bible study (or break out Faith learning sessions). This can also be an excellent time for newcomers to make connections and learn more about the congregation and about our various ministries which strive to make a difference in others’ lives in our community.
