Coming from a small town, I expected my move to Houston would mean that I would find myself lost in a large congregation. After an extensive review of LCMS churches in the area I found Memorial to provide a unique combination of faith, fellowship, and familiar faces in an atmosphere that is always welcoming. From the moment I walk onto the campus until the time I leave, I find myself surrounded by friends who have decided to make Memorial their home for these same, simple reasons. The church offers countless opportunities to share and enhance one’s understanding of our Lord’s Word while allowing its members a close-knit, family setting for worship. I know that the upcoming capital campaign will allow the congregation to carry Christ’s message and work into our community and further foster the mission that Memorial Lutheran Church has made a tradition for half a century.
