Lifting Up Other Voices

Here at the Flame, we have a commitment to lifting up multiple voices. Each week that we have worship, at least one of the readings will be from a person of color, and one will be from the LGBTQIA community. For the third reading, we are using one of the scheduled readings for many churches (the lectionary).

Who we are reading…

Who We Are

The Flame is an outreach of the Lutheran Church (ELCA) in Oregon.

We refer to ourselves as “Loosely Lutheran,” as people come from many backgrounds and have a variety of beliefs.

Each week, we affirm that you have a place here, whether you are mad at God, don’t believe in God, or your faith is strong.

Campus Ministry

The Flame is part of the ELCA Campus Ministry Network, LuMin.

"Grounded in Christ, we live into our identity as Children of God through hospitality, service, justice, integrity, and curiosity. Whoever you are, and wherever you are on your faith journey, we invite you to walk with us."
