We have been a part of the Highlands Ranch community since 1982. We love God and desire to worship him "in spirit and truth". We love God's Word and the comfort it offers. We love people and want to help them know God and his salvation in his Son, Jesus Christ. We love families and seek to help parents in their important role. Singles and married couples, old and young, men and women all will find a warm welcome here.
Services are held at 8 & 10:00am on Sundays during the summer.

Our Philosophy of Worship
We believe that the heart of worship is God inviting sinners to come and meet with him—both to receive his mercy, and to respond gratefully. Our worship tries to reflect this heavenly meeting by being:
- Christ-centered, since we meet God only through Him
- Evangelical (proclaiming Good News)
- Joyfully dignified and reverent
- Focused on God’s Word and Sacraments, the means of communicating His love
- Participatory and predictable through the liturgy
- Connected with past and present forms of Christian worship

Our Larger Fellowship
Abiding Word is associated with the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS), an American church body of 400,000 members and 1,200 congregations, supporting mission work in over twenty countries worldwide. It is committed to upholding the three historic tenets of the Lutheran reformation: Salvation is by God’s grace alone, through faith in Jesus Christ alone, as proclaimed in the Bible alone.
