Immanuel Lutheran Events
Family Beach Party
February 20, 2026February 20, 5:30 - 7:30pm
What could be more fun than a beach party in the middle of winter? Immanuel is hosting a tropical beach party for all families with young children. Bring your kids to splash in the pool, play in the sand, and enjoy some fun in the sun (or at least under the lights) as we transform Immanuel’s atrium into a tropical paradise.
Wear your beach clothes, bring your towel and your sand toys! We’ll supply dinner, along with fruit punch to complete our authentic beach picnic experience.
Please register so we can plan accordingly!

February 18, 2026
We will ground ourselves in the Good News of Lent! Jesus’ life and ministry was about radical welcome, love for neighbor, care for the vulnerable, nourishment for the hungry, nonviolence in the face of injustice. At the heart of Jesus’ teachings, we find liberation, love, mercy, and grace—all of which are meant to be very good news for us all.

Wednesday Night Adult Education
Wednesdays, 6:15 - 7:30 p.m., Fellowship Hall
Begins Wednesday, September 17, 2025
We all know that the Church is bigger than just our congregation and our particular denomination; but why are there so many different churches, where did they come from, what do we share, how are we different, and what is God up to in these traditions today? Join us on Wednesday evenings as we explore all that and more with the help of videos from Dr. Molly Worthen. Our exploration begins with a night of learning about some of the ministries we partner with on September 10th and runs through May. Register today!
Join us for a weekly study led by Pastor Dan, Pastor Steve, and Deacon Savannah.
Questions? Contact Pastor Dan Nelson.
