Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What kind of Christian education do you offer?
A: At GSLS we offer an environment where children, teachers, staff and parents can pray, rejoice, sing, talk of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Students receive daily Bible instruction in their classrooms and attend a weekly chapel service.
Q: What is a Lutheran?
A: A Lutheran is a Christian --one who trust Jesus Christ as their Savior. Lutherans accept the Bible as the true source of Christian love, guidance and doctrine and accept the same ancient creeds (Apostles', etc). Lutherans proclaim God's message by emphasizing justification of faith and teaching that a person is not to live according to a formula of do's and don’ts, but in the freedom of Christian love. For more information, read Pastor's Scott's, "What Lutheran's Believe, Teach and Confess".
