We’re glad you stopped by! Whether you’re looking for a new church home or a place to worship for one Sunday, we at Lord of Love want to welcome you. We hope that the information below will answer some of your questions. If you have additional questions, feel free to browse the rest of our website or contact us.
Who We Are
Our mission statement:
Celebrating and sharing God’s Love in a welcoming community of faith, while serving others.
Lord of Love Lutheran Church is a congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). Lord of Love Lutheran Church was founded in June 1972 by the members of Our Savior’s Lutheran Church (30th and Izard Streets). They chose a site “way out west” Omaha to build a new church.
At 105th and Fort Streets, Lord of Love is no longer “way out west”, but it is still striving to be a beacon on the hill, bringing the light of Christ to our neighbors in the northwest part of Omaha.
Lively worship and fellowship, a good sense of humor, and gratitude for God’s grace are hallmarks of Lord of Love Lutheran Church.
When We Worship
Our worship services are at 9AM each Sunday morning.
We stream Sunday worship on our Lord of Love YouTube channel.
Fellowship time, youth faith formation and adult forums (including Bible study and topical discussions) are offered following worship during the school year.
Please check our home page for details about other fellowship, study, and service opportunities.
Mid-week and other special services are held during the seasons of Advent and Lent, typically at 7:00PM. A shared meal for a time of fellowship often precedes these services.
Where We’re Located
We are located on the south side of Fort Street just off of 105th Street in northwest Omaha. We have easy access from I-680 being just west of this main thoroughfare.
What To Expect
At Lord of Love, we follow the basic pattern of Lutheran worship: we gather, we hear God’s word, we share a meal at the Lord ‘s Table, and we are sent into the world to be Christ to others. Worship is a time for us to listen, pray, confess, receive forgiveness, and praise God.
Our worship services are traditional, and communion is offered every Sunday. Music is an important part of worship at Lord of Love. We use a variety of liturgies and hymns to enhance worship, and on most Sundays, our chancel choir, handbell choir, or brass ensemble shares their gift of music during the service.
The atmosphere at Lord of Love is fairly casual. We do not have a dress code. You can put on your “Sunday best” or come as you are. Everyone is welcome in worship, including babies and young children. However, we do have a staffed nursery. Large-print bulletins and listening devices are available upon request from an usher.
