First Lutheran Van Nuys

Welcome!

We are a congregation that focuses on serving our neighbor and proclaiming God's Law and Gospel. We serve others through a free Saturday morning breakfast to the community, every Saturday of the month, except for the third Saturday, when another congregation serves the breakfast. We also hand out boxes of food donated by a nearby store three days a week. We share the truth of God's Word near the Van Nuys Library, where we sing Christian songs and preach open-air.

Our congregation, founded in 1920, is a member of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod. Our Sunday worship service at 8:30 a.m. is of a traditional style. As a congregation our mission is to share God's peace and forgiveness through Christ.

Please see below for the days and times of our worship services and other activities.

If you are looking for a place to worship or even a church home, we invite you to visit us. We would love to meet you.

Blessings in Christ,

Pastor Erik Loza


Our friend Violet, who was set on fire around Christmas of 2012, is still recuperating. She has healed greatly but is still on a ventilator. Please pray for full healing. We are holding on to the donations received for her until she is ready to be released from the hospital. Thank you for your aid and prayers!
