Welcome to First Lutheran

Located at 815 Venice Blvd, Venice Ca

Nestled right in the heart of Venice, our passion is connecting people on the Westside to God's love. Whether you’re single or married, young or old, a lifelong Christian or someone who’s leery of stepping foot inside a church, we think you’ll find that our community is a place where you can feel welcomed, supported, and loved.

Every Sunday Bible Class

Stay after first service, or come early to second service to attend,

we'd love to have you!

This class is a great way to go deeper into the Word and have discussion with a smaller group. Grab some coffee and a snack and meet in the classroom right by the playground and basketball court from 9:45am to 10:45am.

The U.S. government has designated the month of May as Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) month in order to recognize the historical and cultural contributions of AAPI individuals and groups to the United States. On May 19 as part of the 8:30 and 11:00 services, Ron Uyematsu, who has been attending First Lutheran since 1997, will take a few minutes to remind us of the forced relocation, without due process, of American citizens of Japanese ancestry to detention camps during World War II. He'll tell us what happened to his family members during that time, when individuals and families lost homes, businesses, and employment solely because of their ethnicity. Ron will also share how Christianity shaped his mother’s response to these events and how being raised as a Christian has informed Ron in his daily life.
