OUR SAVIOUR LUTHERAN CHURCH
Welcome.
Located at 90-04 175 ST in Jamaica, NY 11432
Our Saviour Lutheran Church, organized in 1923, is a diverse congregation located in the fast changing, urban area of Jamaica, Queens, NYC. We gather together to celebrate in Word and Sacrament the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to root our hope in the power of God’s word. Persons from twenty-six nations of origin comprise this growing family of God who have been touched by God’s love and respond by giving our lives in friendship and service.
We welcome the opportunity to walk with you or members of your family through important passages of life: baptism, first communion, weddings, funerals, as well as services in your home. Please view our various ministries, or speak to our pastors for more information. 90-04 175 ST Jamaica, NY 11432

Dear Church: WHAT A BLESSING FOR GENEVA and ME TO BE AMONG YOU! We thank you for your hospitality as we’ve moved into a beautifully – renovated Parsonage. Council members and staff (Church and School) have helped me get acclimated to the day – to – day administration of the congregation. As your Interim Lead pastor I play specific roles among you:
FOUNDATIONS ON WHICH AN INTERIM LEAD PASTOR STANDS
- Jesus === the solid rock; all other ground is sinking sand. SO, MY PRAYER WILL BE THAT GOD’S WILL BE DONE == IN THIS PLACE ON 175TH STREET – IN JAMAICA ==== AS IT IS IN HEAVEN.
- ACKNOWLEDGING the grief of losing the pastor most of you have ever known. WE LET – GO; WE GIVE THANKS TO GOD FOR ALL THE GOOD WORK PASTOR BOB HAD DONE.
- With the help of the other pastoral staff– PROVIDE CONSISTENCY : IN PREACHING; TEACHING AND PASTORAL CARE: hospital /homebound visitations and a visitation process for all members as a priority.
- Help the congregation to: PERSONALLY & CONGREGATIONALLY ==== TURN THE ‘PAGE’ ON “OUR SAVIOUR’S” CONGREGATIONAL LIFE — ASKING OURSELVES: WHAT WOULD GOD HAVE US BE & DO IN THIS NEW – CHAPTER OF OUR 100+ years of BUILDING – UP OUR FAITH IN JESUS.
