We are the city site of Christ Memorial Lutheran Church in South County, part of a larger effort to influence the St. Louis region with the gospel. We are Lutheran Christians. We don't believe in walking it alone, or being lone theological rangers. We walk together with about 6,000 other congregations across the country in a church body known as The Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod. Reliant is grounded in the historic Christian faith. We abide by the Confessions and Doctrines of the Lutheran Church. At the center of our faith is the redemptive work Jesus did for us by dying on the Cross and rising from the dead. We strongly hold to the work of God through His means of grace in Holy Communion and Baptism. Reliant Church sees the Scriptures in the Holy Bible as the inerrant Word of God. The Reliant community believes we are called to be children of God and that Christ has come to save all peoples no matter race, color, gender, or past. Humanity is offered a hope and forgiveness through faith in Jesus Christ. Reliant Church believes God has given it a commission to reach St. Louis with the Good News of Christ's forgiveness in sins and hope in eternal life. We believe God has blessed our Church with a congregation of dynamic individuals devoted to the spread of the Gospel in a loving, lively, and diverse way. Reliant is a community loved by God and sent by God. We are loved by God in Jesus Christ. This love compels us to be sent. The word "mission" comes from Latin missio, or sent. We go wherever there is need for love, the love of Christ. So far, we have sent people to Bogota, London, San Diego, Seattle, Minneapolis, South Carolina, Texas and Florida. On a weekly basis we are all sent across St. Louis, from South City to Soulard, from the West End to West County, from SLU to Wash U. We pray that the gospel of Jesus continues to go forth, as more people are loved and more people are sent.
