Dear Friends in Christ,  
 
"Believe as if everything depended upon God, for it does.  Live as if everything depended upon God, for it does.  Then you will be free to offer yourselves in love, to give God the obedience that comes only from faith."
 
Bishop Emeritus Richard Bansemer and Dr. Walter R. Bouman entitled,  We Believe, A Prayer Book Based on the Augsburg Confession.

Men's Breakfast Group
 
 
Book of Faith
The Saturday morning Breakfast Bible Study group has been meeting at church each Saturday morning during Lent for a hearty breakfast and Book of Faith Bible study from 8:00 to 9:00 am.  After Lent, this group will meet on the first Saturday of each month, rotating the cooking and menu each month. 
Spring Cleanup on March 21st 
 
To remind...please come out between 9:00 am and 1:00 pm on Saturday March 21st to help clean up the church -- inside and out.  New carpet will be laid the following week in the common areas of the old building, and the narthex and old Fellowship Hall will get a fresh coat of paint.  To get ready for this, we need to move everything off the old carpet.  Come on out and lend a hand -- even if you can only stay for 30 minutes, there's plenty of stuff to do!
 
Giving our lives joyfully in witness and service!
 
Grace, Mercy, and Peace!
