Church Library

Our Board of Christian Education maintains a church library for the benefit of our members. Our library is located in Luther Hall near the church office. Titles are grouped by media type (DVDs, CDs, books), category (Bibles, commentaries, history, Lutheranism, Christian life and faith, devotional, practical, etc.), and age (adults, teenagers, children), and may be checked out at no charge. A partial listing of titles can be found online at LibraryThing via the following link:
