Calling Oklahoma Lutherans.

[Rion]

I hope this doesn't upset anyone or break any rules...

I'm trying to decide between joining the RCC or the Lutheran church. I wanted to attend services in both, but I cannot find a Lutheran church near me. Would those in Oklahoma mind telling me where yours is? I'm near Choctaw, btw.

P.S. I tried the locator. Closest is like.. 30 miles.

Closest ones I could find (http://www.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=lutheran&near=Choctaw,+OK+73020&sa=X&oi=local&ct=image) were either in Midwest City or Oklahoma City. Even looking at the map I can't really tell how far that is from where you are, but it may be closer than 30 miles.

Hi Rion...Welcome to the Lutheran forum...and no, you aren't breaking any rules.

I found 2 Wisconsin Synod Lutheran (WELS) churches that are close to you.

Holy Cross Lutheran
1441 SW 104th St
Oklahoma City, OK
73159
Approx. 17 miles from Choctaw

Gethsemane Lutheran Church
8811 W Wilsire Blvd
Oklahoma City, OK
73132
Approx 23 miles from Choctaw

I don't know how to do that 'link' thing, but if you go to the WELS website, on the left is the church locator, and you will find more info on these churches.

May I ask what interests you about the Lutheran church? We are always happy to answer questions here.

Are there any doctrinal reasons for this choice?

Studying Scripture and researching various faiths. I'd like to join the RCC but in my heart, certain aspects trouble me. From what I've read here, the majority of these are the same that seperate the Lutheran church from the RCC.

Thanks for the links guys. I was just using the locators from this site and the majority of them didn't have a lot of Lutheran Churches.
