Our Story

Lutheran Church of the Resurrection was established by Pastor John Moren and 63 charter members in 1963 when there were still more sheep than people in Granite Bay. Since then we've grown to over 700 members, 100's of ministries and constant outreach thriving on 6 acres in the heart of town. We're known by our energetic worship, moving outreach, and deep relationships. Resurrection is a church that's small enough to care about each other, but big enough to dare to make a difference. With 5 large buildings, outdoor gathering space, a community soccer field, 1/2 mile prayer walk, labyrinth walk, playground, and 9 classrooms, Resurrection is a prime location for God's will.
