The Navajo Lutheran provides a number of services to the Rock Point community.
Some programs are throughout the entire year, and others are held on special holidays.
We will also be starting new programs in the future, so watch this section for continuing updates.
The Mission School is an elementary school serving children in Kindergarten through 6th grade.
The students who attend the Mission School come from the surrounding Rock Point area.
During registration the Summer of 2007, the Mission had to turn away students because we were filled to capacity.
This truly is a statement of the need for a larger and newer facility.
The Navajo Lutheran Mission, in partnership with the Navajo People and rooted in the Gospel of Jesus Christ, is a community seeking to meet the educational, health, social and spiritual needs of the Navajo People.
