Frequently Asked Questions (and Answers!)
WHAT DO YOU TEACH, PREACH AND CONFESS?
We are members of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod and therefore our pastors are educated, ordained and installed to teach and preach according to the Lutheran Confessions. We are providing a link to one summary of these teachings: www.lcms.org/pages/internal.asp

HOW DOES ONE BECOME A MEMBER?
This depends on one's current church membership, if applicable. Members in good standing of LC-MS congregations who wish to transfer membership to Emmanuel Lutheran/Dearborn should make request of such to their pastor. For those whose membership in an LC-MS congregation has lapsed for whatever reason or they have been a member of another Lutheran confessional body are directed to speak to a pastor. All others are required to complete the Adult Information Class which will provide the necessary steps for membership.
