About Us
Not just a church, we are a community of faith
Welcome to Faith Lutheran. We are an Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) congregation. We are part of the Sierra-San Joaquin Conference of the Sierra-Pacific Synod. This congregation is a place where you are invited to celebrate, lament, rejoice, and experience lives being made new.
Our Story
In 1988, a group of people in Pioneer, California met in a carport to share a dream. Out of that meeting was birthed Faith Lutheran Church of Pioneer, and the plan to build a church that cares deeply about serving our local community. Please join us as we continue to live out that dream.
The Church Sanctuary & Grounds
The sanctuary at Faith Lutheran was built with love and care. The altar is made from one of the local tree giants, a Ponderosa Pine. The cross was handcrafted from an Incense Cedar, and our baptismal font is a grinding rock from the Ione band of Miwok Indians of Amador County, CA. Outside you'll find Easter Hill, a small amphitheater built into the hill, as well as a walkable labyrinth.
