What Lutheran Church MIssouri Synod does

Our Saviour Lutheran Church (OSLC) is a single congregation of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod (LCMS) operating as a non-profit religious institution at 120 South Henry Street, Green Bay, Wisconsin. The church conducts weekly worship services (Sundays at 7:45 AM traditional and 9:15 AM contemporary, plus Thursdays at 12:15 PM and 6:30 PM) and a portfolio of ministries including Bible study, confirmation classes, Sunday School, youth and family ministry, a music program, a prayer ministry, and Vacation Bible School. A wholly-owned subsidiary, OSLC Pre-School, delivers early childhood education under director Kelli Hillmann.

The organization runs a four-person staff — Senior Pastor David Hatch, Administrative Assistant Amanda Schaeffer, Family Life Ministry Leader Avra Schmitting, and Pre-School Director Kelli Hillmann — and is governed by a Church Council that formally adopted its current mission statement on May 14, 2018. Technology consists of the Monk Platform church management system with YouTube live-streaming of services and Fellowship One Go as the digital giving backbone; no proprietary technology, APIs, or AI capabilities are disclosed.

Revenue mechanics are donation-based: voluntary tithes and offerings collected in person and online, supplemented by any tuition from the pre-school subsidiary. The church participates in the Northeastern WI Lutheran School Association (NEWLSA) alongside Trinity Lutheran School and Faith Preschool, embedding OSLC within a regional Lutheran educational ecosystem. Outreach runs through a website (oslc-gb.org), email newsletters, YouTube, and community events. No revenue figures, expansion plans, funding activity, or M&A are disclosed.
