          Welcome to Messiah Lutheran Church
messiah_with_crossWe are located in Point Place,
part of Toledo, Ohio.
We have
a long history
as a
fishing community.
Our
community members
work
hard to fulfill the needs of
their families


As Jesus told Peter and
his brother, tending their
fishing trade along the shores
of the Sea of Galilee, to
"
Come, follow me, and I will
make you fishers of men
",
(Matthew 4:18-20),
we here at
Messiah Lutheran Church are also the Lord's
"fishers".
We open our arms and hearts to all who want to learn and be part of those
who live in the "light" of God's love,forgiveness and promise of eternal life
.

As a fisherman, fishing to feed himself and his family, also find peace and the
wonders of God's day and creations, we, and you,
will find peace walking in
God's light and bringing that light to others.

Come and be a fisher for God along with us at Messiah. Feed yourself and
help us feed the hungry sitting along the shore needing to be fed; needing
to be "nourished" with the food of life and needing to find the peace that
only God's food and promise of forgiveness and everlasting life can bring.
