Spanaway Lutheran Church is one of 10,000 congregations of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America (E.L.C.A.). Together with congregations across the world, we are involved in vigorous missions to bring people to faith in Jesus Christ.
This congregation was begun as a mission church in 1962. Our current sanctuary was dedicated in 1984.
We believe in and encourage the ministry of all baptized people of God. We believe that we are called to serve God through the work of the congregation and in the vocations of our daily lives.
We believe that we all fall short of God’s expectations. We also believe that we have a loving God that forgives us. We believe that it is God acting for and in us, not our own acts, that brings forgiveness. Lutherans call this "justification by grace through faith.” As a result we are new people who are not haunted by guilt or worry. We trust God who comes to us in the person and work of Jesus Christ.
