Who We Are

Lord of Life Oromo Church is part of the Lord of Life Lutheran Church family in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Founded in 2008 by a small group of twelve members, our congregation has continued to grow through God's grace in both faith and fellowship. We are committed to worshiping the Triune God,

sharing the hope of Jesus Christ, and building a strong, supportive community where people can grow in their faith and serve others. Since November 2014, Pastor Chera Nemera has served as the congregation's pastor, providing spiritual leadership and guidance.
