A Rich History of Faith and Service

Emanuel Lutheran Church founded in August 1874 has its roots in Ludington community dating back to Scandinavian immigrants particularly from Sweden. Their faith and traditions shaped the early years of Emanuel Lutheran Church of Ludington and for generations conducting worship services in the Swedish language reflecting the heritage of the founding members.

​

Over the years the congregation has grown while steadfastly committed to serving the Ludington community with faith, compassion, and love. From its earliest beginnings to the present day, generations of dedicated members continue to to carry forward the tradition of a worship service that is a lasting source of Godly fellowship, support, and hope in the heart of Ludington.

Emanuel and Grace's Mission Together

Emanuel Lutheran Church of Ludington (ELCA) and Grace Episcopal Church joined together to share the same physical church to meet the needs of both churches and their congregations. Emanuel and Grace’s mission is rooted in the belief that community is essential for personal and collective growth at the same time respecting their separate traditions.

At the core of Emanuel and Grace’s mission is the desire to build meaningful relationships.
