Church Boards

Church Boards

Our church boards and committees are driven by dedicated members who work collaboratively to guide our congregation and school, care for our facilities and community, and support our shared mission and life in Christ.

Board of Finance

The Board of Finance is responsible for the fiscal stewardship and long-term financial health of our church and school. This team oversees the careful monitoring of tithes and offerings, supervises the development and implementation of the annual operating budget, and ensures that all resources are managed with integrity, transparency, and accountability to faithfully support the ministries, facilities, and mission of Immanuel.

Board of Elders

The Board of Elders is dedicated to the spiritual care, health, and well-being of our congregation, its called workers, and its members. Working closely with the pastor, this team provides spiritual oversight for the worship life of the church, assists with the administration of the Sacraments, offers counsel and prayer, and guards the purity of doctrine - ensuring that everything done within our fellowship remains firmly anchored in God's Word and centered on Christ.

Board of Christian Education

The Board of Christian Education governs and oversees the ministries, policies, and educational standards of Immanuel Lutheran School. Dedicated to fostering a rigorous, Christ-filled academic environment, this team works closely with our faculty and leadership to ensure that every student's spiritual and intellectual growth is grounded in biblical truth, Lutheran doctrine, and Christian values, while partnering with families to cultivate lifelong faith and character.

Board of Parish Ministries

The Board of Parish Ministries focuses on nurturing the spiritual life and well-being of our congregation through comprehensive educational, worship, and fellowship programs. This team oversees vital foundational ministries - including Sunday School, Vacation Bible School (VBS), and ongoing faith formation for all ages - while also coordinating key service groups like our ushers and Altar Guild, ensuring that our Sunday services and congregational life run smoothly, reverently, and with a spirit of deep Christian hospitality.

Board of Youth Ministry

The Board of Youth is dedicated to nurturing the faith of our young people and empowering them as active members of the body of Christ. Focusing on relational, mission-driven connections, this team builds dynamic youth-centric programs, meaningful service projects, and engaging fellowship events. They also coordinate major travel and faith-forming experiences - such as organizing and supporting youth attendance at the National Youth Gathering - to help students forge lifelong Christian friendships and deeply connect to the wider life of the church.

Board of Christian Stewardship

The Board of Christian Stewardship is dedicated to encouraging the joyful, Gospel-motivated practice of sharing the wonderful blessings God has given us. This team helps guide our congregation in the faithful stewardship of time, talents, and treasures - coordinating annual commitments, identifying and utilizing unique member skills to support church ministries, and keeping our church community informed about local and broader mission goals.

Board of Evangelism

The Board of Evangelism focuses on sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ both within our congregation and out in the wider community. This team coordinates meaningful outreach efforts, including local food drives and works regularly to support area shelters and food banks. They also oversee welcoming ministries for Sunday visitors and spearhead large-scale church and community traditions - including Immanuel's annual German Festival, which draws the local community and beyond for authentic German food, fellowship, and celebration.

Board of Trustees

The Board of Trustees takes on the vital job of caring for the physical blessings and facilities God has given our congregation. From the church building and parish center to our school buildings and properties, this team oversees essential maintenance, coordinates repairs, and partners with fellow church members on volunteer work projects to keep our campus running smoothly and safely.
