Hello, my friends,
I am so happy you found our Christ the King Lutheran Church website. Welcome! To our online home and our sincere attempt to be present in this virtual world. Please know you are welcome, and we hope this website will give you some insight into our community. Please feel free to come and visit us in person or online.
Christ the King Lutheran Church is a welcoming and laid-back community in Whalley, Surrey, B.C. We’ve been in the neighbourhood for over 70 years. You might say we are an old church in a very new building!
Since being in Whalley for many decades, we’ve seen many changes in the past years. Before, where there were trees, now there are towers filled with newcomers to Canada and Surrey.
Our congregation consists of people who have been in Surrey for much of their lives and those new to Surrey; many of us have come far to be in Canada. We are a very welcoming community that embraces the diversity of the body of Christ, and we uphold each other as we celebrate life’s significant hurdles and victories.
Most importantly, we embrace God’s radical message of grace, embodied in his son, Christ Jesus, who welcomes us where we are, not where we think we should be. God embraces us because of our faith in Christ Jesus’s sacrifice on the cross, not our actions.
God has known us from the womb, and there is nothing we can do or be that he doesn’t already know we can become. Jesus told us a loving mandate: “Love God with all your heart, soul, and mind and love your neighbour as yourself.’ As a community, this is all we can reach.
May God’s blessings be upon you,
Pastor Nicolas
