ABOUT US

​

Purpose Statement
East Immanuel is committed to serving Jesus Christ as an Army of 
Disciples that will affect the world for Him through worship of God, 
witness to the world, and a ministry of love to one another.

Confession of Faith
East Immanuel accepts all the canonical books of the Old and 
New Testaments as a whole and in all their parts as the divinely 
inspired, revealed, and inerrant Word of God and submits to this
as the only infallible authority in all matters of faith and life.

(Taken from East Immanuel Lutheran Church Constitution)

East Immanuel has a legacy of standing for  God’s truth. At its most basic, this church

has stood for the sanctity of God’s Word (the Bible), the sanctity of life (which

starts at conception), and the sanctity of marriage (with the definition of one man, one woman).

While we love all people, believe them to be made in the image of God and created equal,

not all ideas are equal and we will stand for God’s truth no matter what society or popular

opinion may say. We stand upon the Rock (the Lord Jesus) and His Word,

and not upon the “shifting sands” of our time.

​

We teach "Essential Doctrine Made Easy" by  Norman Geisler to all new members.

YOUTH

REFUGE - (Youth ages Kindergarten through 12th grade)  Meets on Wednesday nights throughout the school year from 5:30 - 7:00 p.m.

​

Our mission on Wednesday nights is to create a safe, enriching environment where the seeds of faith can be planted and nourished in the hearts of our youth. Youth of all ages may join us for dinner, Bible trivia, devotions, games, and dessert. We divide into appropriate age groups.

​

SUNDAY KIDS CHURCH - (K-5th grade)  East Immanuel loves helping kids understand God's Word and nurturing them towards a deeper relationship with Jesus. A fun, hands-on approach through our curriculum helps kids remember and treasure the Word of God.

​

We love having children in church to give them the opportunity to worship with their families until their dismissal to KIDS CHURCH after the worship set. At that time, the children will meet their teacher upstairs in the kids church room while their parents continue with the Worship Service.

​

NURSERY -  (Birth to 4 years old) Nursery is provided on a weekly basis during the Sunday Worship Service. We have loving nursery workers who care for and play with your child.

​

OTHER SPECIAL EVENTS throughout the year include the Easter Egg Hunt, Vacation Bible School, and the Hallelujah Festival (see Outreach).

Outreach

East Immanuel believes we are to be the hands and feet of Jesus. We want to be a bright light in a dark world. Our church is on one of the busiest corners in East St. Paul, MN. We have an amazing opportunity to reach the neighborhood with God's love through different events throughout the year. East Immanuel is takin' the Gospel to the streets.

EASTER EGG HUNT - (Every Spring before Easter) - A hunt for over 2,000 candy-filled eggs, face painting, crafts, food, and the true story of Easter.

​

VACATION BIBLE ADVENTURE - (July 23. 24 and 25 from 5:30 to 8:00 pm for KIDS.) Join us for a 3-day camp full of Bible stories, games, crafts, singing and more. The curriculum is all designed to strengthen each child's relationship with Jesus. Email Tracy Monson to register your child or children at tmlynn121481@yahoo.com.

​

HALLELUJAH FESTIVAL - (every October for FAMILIES.) A fun, safe, family event with food, carnival games, face painting, moonwalk, and more. The Gospel Message is always shared!

​

TOY DRIVE - (every December.) East Immanuel and partner churches donate hundreds of gifts to bless the children of East St. Paul. Parents come to the church to pick out the perfect gift for their little ones. The opportunity to serve, pray, and connect with the parents is a blessing to our congregation and a great way to plant seeds of faith in their hearts

C.U.R.E.

CURE Ministries is a non-profit, non--denominational organization that is dedicated to helping meet the physical and spiritual needs of underprivileged people.

​

We serve FREE meals every Monday at 5:30 p.m. except the first Monday of the month. Food shelf is also available for all in need.

C.U.R.E. Believes that:

Each individual is valuable and unique. They are worthwhile not because of their income or possessions, but because they were created by a God who loves them. Homelessness is a tragedy and we want to help eliminate it.

Hunger is curable, and we will not ignore it. As Matthew 25:35 says "I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink. I was a stranger and you invited me in."
