If you’re exploring Diamond Lake Lutheran Church for the first time, our website will answer many questions. We invite you to visit us in person to learn even more about who we are and what we do. Our worship services are every Sunday at 9:30 am, but you’ll find activities at Diamond Lake throughout the week as well. Wednesday evenings are especially busy with a community meal, Kids Club, Youth Group, and the Lakeview Forum. Take a look at our calendar and join us!
The easiest way to become part of a church community is to get involved. From social outreach to Bible study and more, we offer many opportunities to deepen relationships both inside our walls and out in the community. Drop in at any time to learn more about how each group operates. We can’t wait to meet you!
Members and friends (all ages, including children and youth) of Diamond Lake Lutheran Church are invited to join a trip to Greece and Türkiye, following in the footsteps of the Apostle Paul and early church leaders.
SPARK and The Dwelling Church are teaming up to offer youth and leaders an experience focused on seeing and valuing our neighbors as unique individuals made in the image of Christ. Throughout the week, we will walk alongside community members and reflect on our own prejudices and biases, particularly around those who are unhomed and those living on the margins. During the day, we’ll have the opportunity to serve in the community through a variety of projects. In the evenings, we’ll share meals, explore Winston-Salem, and connect with new friends through meaningful activities.
The Summer Festival Camp at Gustavus Adolphus College is a unique opportunity for middle school students to take a break from their daily routines and experience days filled with excitement, learning, and spiritual growth. You’ll meet and hang out with peers from all over the Midwest, forging new friendships and deepening existing ones.

Revelation is a wild and mysterious book—full of visions, beasts, dragons, fire, and fear. But at its core, it’s a message of promise and hope. This summer, let’s explore how the final book of the Bible might actually offer a new beginning for us as people of faith. Each evening will begin with dinner in the Lakeview Room (or out on the deck as the weather allows), followed by a short 15-minute video, and then a conversation. In a disorienting and chaotic world, Revelation might just hold the hope we’re looking for. You don’t need to attend every session—just come when you can!
When you arrive, friendly greeters will welcome you. If you have a few extra minutes, grab a cup of coffee and a Bogart’s Doughnut, and join folks in the commons area for conversation.
During worship, you’ll experience a blend of liturgy, Bible readings, and a thought-provoking sermon. Children are actively engaged in the service through features such as the Pray-Ground at the front of the sanctuary and the Sermon on the Steps. Holy Communion is part of every worship service.
Award-winning musician Dr. Kevin Hobbs plays both the organ and grand piano, offering worshippers a weekly prelude and postlude on the grand piano. The choir is directed by Dr. Bruce Gleason, and services often feature the Children’s and Carillon Bell Choirs, led by Chuck Linderkamp.
Congregational Fellowship Hour: Following worship, stay awhile to enjoy more Lutheran coffee, Bogart’s Doughnuts, and great conversation.

Each of us is gifted with unique talents, interests, and life experiences. Using these gifts alongside others helps us to carry out our mission at Diamond Lake to learn, follow, and serve. Learn more about the variety of committees, teams, and ministries we offer. Some of them keep our church healthy and vibrant while others focus on connecting with people in the greater community. We invite you to consider where God might be calling you to be of service.
