Our Missionaries

Meet the Ekka family!

Working through World Mission Prayer League (WMPL), we are blessed to support Pr. Nijhar, her husband Neeraj, and their children: Maani, Urbas, Puna and Jhumpa in their work in Ranchi, India.

We celebrate the Sacrament of Holy Communion at every Sunday Mass. All are welcome to receive the Lord’s Body and Blood who are baptized and believe that Jesus Christ, crucified and risen, is truly present in, with, and under the forms of bread and wine for the forgiveness of sins, life and salvation.

The Lord's Supper

Mission in Christ is more than just those who are able to gather for worship on any given Sunday. As a supporting congregation, we are also part of the larger community of the Strawberry Point Lutheran Home. To learn more, click on their logo!
