Worship & Music

Worship connects your faith with your life and identity. Because faith doesn’t stop when you leave the building, we want you to leave worship each week with a clear understanding of how the Biblical lesson is relevant to your daily life.

MUSIC

Music plays a vital role in our worship experience, and Augustana has a long tradition of quality music. Our traditional worship is enriched by four vocal choirs, two handbell choirs, and our Glatter-Gotz/Rosales pipe organ. Our Contemporary Service features praise music led by the Celebration Band.

Augustana presents several concerts by professional ensembles and soloists throughout the year.
