Luther Memorial ChurchLocated in the heart of downtown Madison on the University of Wisconsin campus, Luther Memorial Church (ELCA) has faithfully witnessed to the gospel through liturgical worship, Christian education and social outreach for more than 100 years. From its early days as a student Bible study meeting in an upstairs dance hall on State Street, Luther Memorial has been committed to ministering to students and residents of central Madison and put down permanent roots by building its gothic-style cathedral at the corner of University Ave. and Mills Street. We encourage you to join our community of faith as we worship, study and serve together.
