FIRST TIME VISITORS
At Living Water, we want you to be able to experience the praise music, the friendly folks,
the encouraging messages and the close-knit atmosphere. We understand that questions may
arise about your first visit to a church.
What time does church start?
Join Us for Worship at 08:45 am and Bible Study at 10:00 am.
How do I get there?
Living Water meets at 12265 El Camino Real, Suite 180, (at the Keller Williams Office Building).
Although the address is 12265 El Camino Real, there is a Street sign perpendicular to El
Camino Real calling it Paseo View Court. Once in the court, veer to the right and park
in the lot in front of the building. Please visit Contact
for more information.
What should I wear?
Come to worship dressed in a way that makes you comfortable.
We certainly have no dress code. Most of our people wear casual slacks and collared shirts.
You may "dress up" or "dress down". Shorts, slacks, skirts are all fine. (Our pastor normally
wears a coat and tie during the service.)
What should I expect in church?
You'll enjoy praise music and sensible messages that help you deal with every-day issues
and situations. We include an outline with the Bible passages that will help you to follow
along with the message. During the “greeting” time we greet
each other with hugs, hand shakes
and say, “Hi!” or we say “Peace be with you.” We do this to share in the joy of fellowship.
If you don’t feel comfortable getting out of your seat, you don’t have to! We’ll come to you
and say “hello.”
We partake in the Lord’s Supper or Communion every week. We believe that the Lord’s Supper
(bread and wine) is the true body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. The benefit of taking
the Lord’s Supper is to receive the body and blood of our Savior for the forgiveness of sins
and strengthening of our faith. The Lord’s Supper is for Christians who believe that Jesus
Christ is the only way to Salvation, repent of their sins and by God’s strength intend to
amend their sinful lives. If you visit us and are not sure if you are ready to receive, feel
free to come forward and receive a blessing. Just place a finger over your mouth when you come
up.
What does the Lutheran (LCMS) denomination believe?
Lutheranism had it’s beginnings in 1517, when Martin Luther publicly called for the correction
of errors in the medieval church. Luther was a pastor, professor, author, composer of hymns and
reformer. His ideas still stimulate new thinking in the church—he is respected, but NOT WORSHIPPED!
Lutheranism teaches that a person is saved by the grace of God through faith in Christ.
