Tahoma Lutheran Church Proclaiming the Forgiveness of Sins in Jesus' Name
We are a small house church in Maple Valley, WA that believes in the forgiveness of sins on account of Jesus Christ and his cross. We are gathered every Sunday around the preaching of the Word of Jesus Christ and the sacraments of the Lord’s Supper and holy baptism.

The Lord is still driving us out of the land of slavery, not a three-day journey (Ex 5:3), but a full six days into the wilderness, to feast with the Lord.
I remember so many Sundays about 40 years ago, when I remained in the pew, trying to decide if I was ready to receive Holy Communion. Was I penitent enough, devoted, pious, holy?

Oh, that we would listen to Jesus. I once knew a brother in a congregation who would walk straight out of church as soon as he had communed.
