Welcome to Christ Risen Lutheran Church! Divine Service is every Sunday @ 10:30 am. We are a confessional Lutheran congregation serving the communities of Kanata and Stittsville in Ottawa’s West End. We believe the Bible is the Word of God. We confess The Three Ecumenical Creeds: The Apostles’ Creed, Nicene Creed, and Athanasian Creed. We subscribe to the Book of Concord (1580). Christ Risen Lutheran Church is a member congregation of Lutheran Church—Canada. If you are visiting from a sister congregation and wish to receive communion, we ask that you kindly reach out beforehand to speak with our pastor. Guests may come for a blessing.

The Church commemorates …

Constantine, Emperor and Helena on May 21st. The Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod document of Commemoration Biographies describe Constantine and Helena as follows: Constantine I served as Roman Emperor from A.D. 306 to 337. During his reign the persecution of Christians was forbidden by the Edict of Milan in 312, and ultimately the faith gained full imperial support. Constantine took an active interest in the life and teachings of the church and called the Council of Nicaea in 325 at which orthodox Christianity was defined and defended. His mother, Helena (ca. 255-329), strongly influenced Constantine. Her great interest in locating the holy sites of the Christian faith led her to become one of the first Christian pilgrims to the Holy Land. Her research led to the identification of Biblical locations in Jerusalem, Bethlehem, and beyond, which are still maintained as places of worship today.
