Worship is central to our lives and all that we do at Phinney Ridge Lutheran Church. We welcome and encourage you to join us as we praise the God who created us, gives us new life in Christ, and is with us through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Sunday Holy Communion 8:30 and 11:00 a.m (11am meets at 10am during the summer).
Special Services as scheduled.

Word, Bath, Meal

At the center of our faith stands the Word of God. We believe, teach and preach from this dynamic revelation of God’s presence with us – ancient words for a contemporary age. In our community of faith the Scriptures are understood as the authoritative Word from God and the interpreted Word for a changing, questioning, hungering world.

Entrance into the community of faith comes as it has throughout the ages, through the cleansing bath of Holy Baptism. In the center of our worship stands a filled font, into which water is poured with each baptismal remembrance. Like the bloodlines that unite relatives, we believe that the “waterlines” of this sacrament bind us together in a community of faith with both gifts and responsibilities for those who would follow Jesus.

  • The WAY: preparation for baptism and our process of faith formation

Holy Communion is celebrated at every service, every Sunday. We welcome all who believe in the power of the Risen Christ and who find in the sacrament our Lord’s presence for the forgiveness of sins and the renewal of life. While our communion celebrations vary according to service and season, they are always reverent, inclusive, and grounded in the hope of Christ that the Scriptures promise.

Nursery Care

At PRLC we do not expect little ones to sit still and be quiet during worship services.  We invite you to grab a book or two from the library or a busy bag from the Narthex and bring the whole bustling family to worship together.   However, for our smallest members (from birth to 5 years old) nursery care is also avaiable on the 300 Level, down the hall from the Sanctuary, during Sunday morning services, meetings of The WAY, and during Bread for the Journey on Wednesday evenings.  In addition to a paid attendant, the nursery is staffed by adult and youth volunteers. Questions regarding childcare for specific services?  Contact Pastor Beverly Piro, 206-783-2350, bpiro@prlc.org.

While the obvious way to participate is simply by being present to offer your voice in worship, praise, and prayer, there are countless opportunities for particular service as well, including:

There is a place for you and your unique gifts.  Contact the church office for more information.
