About Our Worship Services
We are grateful to have you join us for worship. We have two worship opportunities:
9:00 a.m. Traditional Worship Service
This service utilizes a liturgical format with traditional hymns.
10:00 a.m. Fellowship and Refreshments
Everyone is welcome to meet in our Gathering Place between services for for coffee, tea, and light snacks. This is a great opportunity to meet new people.
10:30 a.m. Modern Worship Service
This service includes modern music with a variety of alternating musical groups including our Children’s Choir and various bands. The first and third Sunday of every month offers a Children’s Church option for ages 3 to 10.
The Lord’s Supper is offered every Sunday at Crown of Life. We follow the practice of closed communion, which is described in the communion statement below. To ensure that the Lord’s Supper is administered properly, we ask that all visitors to Crown of Life, including members of other LCMS congregations, speak with the pastor or usher before the service if they’re interested in receiving the Sacrament.
Everyone is welcome to come to the altar; those not receiving the Lord’s body and blood (including children who have not yet been confirmed in the Faith) will receive a blessing from the pastor.

Crown of Life Communion Statement
The Lord’s Supper is celebrated at Crown of Life in the confession and glad confidence that, as he says, our Lord gives into our mouths not only bread and wine but his very body and blood to eat and to drink for the forgiveness of sins and to strengthen our union with him and with one another. Our Lord invites to his table those who trust his words, repent of all sin, and set aside any refusal to forgive and love as he forgives and loves us, that they may show forth his death until he comes.
Because those who eat and drink our Lord’s body and blood unworthily do so to their great harm and because Holy Communion is a confession of the faith which is confessed at this altar, any who are not yet instructed, in doubt, or who hold a confession differing from that of this congregation and The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod, and yet desire to receive the sacrament, are asked first to speak with the pastor or an usher.
