Who We Are
Our mission is simple...
As for me and my house we will serve the Lord in how we Love, in how we Live, and in how we Give.
We are an active, growing, and energetic congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (www.elca.org) and the Northeastern Iowa Synod (www.neiasynod.org).
We offer both contemporary and traditional worship services and offer faith building opportunities for people of all ages.

One of the best parts of being a pastor is receiving handmade gifts from our youth. This beautiful artwork was presented to me on my Installation Day. Folks, we have some really awesome kids in our congregation - let's give thanks to God for them and pray for their faith to remain strong as they grow!
Let's talk about Lutheran Men in Mission and the "One Year to Live" Retreat.![]()

I strongly encourage the men of Immanuel to attend this year's event, held Oct. 23-25 at Camp EWALU. Having attended myself, I can say that you will have the opportunity to build bonds with other men as together you consider what things are truly important in your life. You will see God's love and grace in action. Attend for yourself, and attend for those who matter most in your life. ![]()

Pastor Moeller's official installation was held on Sunday and we had some special guests! In addition to Bishop Kevin Jones, representatives from Lutheran Men in Mission made the trip to Independence to celebrate with him on this special occasion. It was Pastor's experience with a LMM "One Year to Live" retreat that brought him to NE Iowa, and eventually to Immanuel. More information about this organization and their events will be coming soon!
ATM is holding a spring cleaning sale! They’ll have the sale open for Immanuel members on Wednesday, April 22, from 7-8pm; and open to the public on Thursday, April 23, from 4-7pm.
