Nineveh: Lutheran Justice Ministry
Synodical Authorized Worshipping Community
Nineveh is not a traditional congregation. We are an intentional justice-oriented faith community, grounded in the teachings of the Gospels. Like other ministries, we offer worship, prayers, preaching, teaching and the sacraments.
And we embrace an expansive idea of what it means to be church. To break away from the perception of "church" being a Sunday morning-only activity, we are not open on Sundays. We regard all activities for service and fellowship, charity and relationships as part of what it means to be the body of Christ.
Thus, we do not have traditional membership. Anyone who wants to participate in any of our activities is accepted fully as a member here. There are no requirements of "right belief" or creed. We encourage everyone to be involved in other local faith and altruistic opportunities and events and to expand our collective pool of relationships that we might love our neighbor fully.
