Greetings! Once your computer fully "loads" this web site, you will hear music and perhaps see a few pictures or a video. It might take a minute to load these settings. Enjoy! If you do not hear music, look above - to the top of your screen. You most likely will see in highlighted text a question asking if you want to download or install "active x." This is ok, and necessary to use the embedded music players we use. Click on that area of the screen "OK", and then a brief download will take place.
You will then hear the amazing sounds of SMLC! |

A few historical notes. |  |  |
Our congregation first gathered for services in 1989 at St. Bartholomew's Church, meeting only twice a month.On May 25, 1997, Shepherd of the Mountains Lutheran Church (SMLC) was officially recognized by the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America as a congregation of the Rocky Mountain Synod. On June 29, 2008, a Service of Dedication was held for the church building, the first for SMLC!
