About Us
Mount Olive Lutheran Church Mission Statement
Our Church: A Vision of Faith and Community
Mount Olive Lutheran Church is a caring congregation inspired by faith and shaped by the love and grace of God.
We believe that God’s presence is at the center of our lives, continually renewing us as a relational people, and giving us a deeper sense of purpose through the transformative co-creation of our collective church and greater communities.
We walk with God in a communal life of prayer and worship, hearing the word of God proclaimed, being revived and healed by grace, and nourished by love. Each day, we receive the fullness of life, journeying together in an accepting and participatory way.
Mount Olive Lutheran Church is an open and inclusive community that celebrates diversity and difference, where all are invited to grow and learn alongside each other. Here, all people are welcomed, nurtured, affirmed and encouraged in their relationship with God. We provide a safe place to gather and belong, inviting you to come as you are. No matter where you are on your faith journey, there is a place here for you.

The History of Mount Olive Lutheran Church
Mount Olive was established in 1959 when the American Lutheran Church designated White Rock as a mission field. At that time, White Rock was mainly a summer resort, farming community, and a fishing village. The surrounding area has experienced considerable growth in population in the past 65 years.
