Family of God Lutheran Church
Brooklyn Park MN

Family of God is a welcoming community of faith which has carried out ministry in the Brooklyn Park Area since 1970. It is a congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Today's membership is a rich mix of individuals and families, longtime and newer members, joined together to grow in faith and serve in Christ's name. Members of all ages take part in worship, learning, outreach, service, hospitality, friendship-building events and programs in youth and family ministry. New member groups form at least twice a year, but whether or not you are seeking a church home, your visit or call is welcome.

What We Believe

We believe in the Triune God -- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

We believe in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, and the Gospel as the power of God for salvation for all who believe.

We believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the written Word of God, inspired by God's Spirit speaking through their authors, recording and announcing God's revelation centering in Jesus Christ.

We believe the Church to be a people created by God in Christ and sustained by the Holy Spirit, called, and sent to communicate God's creative, redeeming, and sanctifying activity in the world.
