This is a place to belong.

Worship with us every Sunday

at 9 AM, in person or via YouTube livestream.

About our worship

We gather on Sundays at 9 am for a worship service that uses traditional worship “stuff” (Bible readings, prayers, sermon, songs) but doesn't get stuck in traditionalism. We’re not afraid to try new things!

Use the buttons on the right to find what you need. We can’t wait to welcome you soon!

Our Savior's Lutheran Church:
2124 Viola Rd NE, Rochester, MN 55906

Music

Our congregation loves music!

We have a vocal choir, a bell choir, and an orchestra that regularly add to our worship services; we are always ready for new musicians to join in.

Our congregational singing is led by organ or piano, and many times by both!

Our Pastor

Pastor Ben Loven, Senior Pastor

Pastor Ben is extremely passionate about helping God’s people live into the mission that God has given us through baptism, enjoys preaching, and teaching.

Baptisms, Weddings, & Funerals

Milestone events in our lives offer us a chance to connect in meaningful ways.

Whether it’s the wonder of a baptism, the joy of a wedding, or the grief of saying goodbye to a loved one, our community cares deeply. If you are interested in learning more about any of these, please contact our Office Administrator at office@rochesteroslc.org
