Worship with us this summer as we explore God's word in new ways! June will be focused on the Apostle Paul's journeys and the lengths to which he went to spread the news of Jesus. In July we will be focusing on what we believe and different statements of belief. Our August series will be "People's Choice" so, August is where we
need your help. We are interested in what you would like to have the Pastors preach on in August. Beginning in mid June, we will have a place that you can submit your favorite bible story, a section that you have questions on or a bible story that you want to hear more about and the Pastors will select a few to preach about during the month of August. Join us for worship at 9:30 Sunday mornings this summer. We are excited to worship with you!
Make Paynesville Lutheran Your Church!
If you’re new to PLC and have been wondering more about our
congregation or would you like to know more about what it means to be a
member of our worshipping community, please plan on joining us for our
