United Ecumenical Lutheran Synod 

Everyone is welcome here!

About Us

The United Ecumenical Lutheran Synod is a faith community rooted in the sacred traditions of High Church Lutheranism. We are committed to reverent worship, theological depth, and spiritual outreach in the spirit of Martin Luther’s original reform. Our mission is to share the grace of Jesus Christ with all people—regardless of age, ability, or circumstance—through meaningful liturgy, compassionate service, and modern platforms that connect believers across the globe.

What We Believe

We uphold the core teachings of Lutheran theology, guided by:

• The Holy Bible (66 books)

• The Nicene Creed

• The Augsburg Confession

We affirm two sacraments:

• Baptism – administered by pouring or by triple immersion, using the Trinitarian formula

• Holy Eucharist – celebrated with belief in the real presence of Christ

Our worship is liturgical, sacramental, and deeply rooted in tradition, with a focus on beauty, reverence, and spiritual formation.

Support

We fully welcome anybody and everybody to explore the Faith in this Church, no matter what their race, religion, social class, or sexual orientation is, and no matter what they're going through in life, they are always welcome.

We at the UELS are dedicated to having an inclusive faith community, therefore we welcome all LGBTQ+ individuals to receive the sacraments in our Church, and make access to sacraments and theological education available to all.
