Fair are the meadows, fair are the woodlands, robed in the flowers of blooming spring;
Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer; He makes our sorrowing spirit sing.

Catechism Instruction

Catechism class is instruction in the basic teachings of the Bible.

“I must remain a child and pupil of the catechism, and am glad to do so.” – Martin Luther

Catechism classes at Beautiful Savior are for early teens, typically starting during the 6th or 7th grade year. Classes run the length of the school year, and students will complete two years of catechism classes in order to be confirmed.

Confirmation signals the child’s entry into the church as an adult, and they receive communion for the first time. Confirmation is in the spring. Classes begin in the Fall at both campuses. For more information, please contact the church office.

“They read from the Book of the Law of God, making it clear and giving the meaning so that the people could understand what was being read.” Nehemiah 8:8

About WELS

Beautiful Savior Lutheran Church is a member of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS). The WELS is a world-wide church with congregations in all 50 states. The WELS also serves over 25 countries through world mission work. Our congregation and church body are solidly based on the foundation of the Bible. We believe that Jesus is our Savior and the only way to heaven. Through faith in Jesus we are united to him and each other.



The name "Lutheran" comes from the great reformer Martin Luther. In a period in history when the Church had lost sight of its Savior and the truth of his Word, Martin Luther boldly challenged these errors and preached Jesus Christ as Savior. We are proud to remember his work in bringing to light the truth of God's Word by using his name to identify ourselves.

The directive effectively closes all Wisconsin businesses and entities other than those that are deemed essential. Other states have issued, or likely will issue, similar directives. Already after the first restrictions […]

    In his book The Rise of Christianity, Dr. Rodney Stark estimates that Christianity grew an average of 40 percent per decade for the first few centuries of its existence.
