Background/Mission

Lutheran missionaries from America started work that led to the formation of the Lutheran Church in Malaysia and Singapore in the late 1950s. In August 1996, the Lutheran Church in Singapore (LCS) was gazetted as an independent national church.

We confess Jesus Christ as Lord of the Church and acknowledge the Holy Scriptures as the norm for faith and life. We believe in the scriptural principle of the priesthood of all believers. As such, we encourage all our members to participate in the various works of the Church, through local congregations and central committees. The main objectives of the Lutheran Church in Singapore are:

· To proclaim the Gospel to all people in Singapore

· To participate in world wide mission

· To gather into fellowship & nurture those believers who respond in faith to the Gospel
