New Ministry: Bring a Helmet
Janelle Bidne, Coordinator of Communications
Rod Snavely, Member of St. John's Lutheran Church in Des Moines, IA
It began with a simple post on Facebook and a mention in the church's bulletin. Going beyond the doors of the church it took to the streets and the Des Moines area. Now, in numbers and interest, the group is growing. It is the new ministry group at St. John's Lutheran Church in Des Moines, IA and you may want to bring a helmet. |

Holy Week Worship for Rostered Leaders
Monday, March 25, 2013
Bethany Lutheran Church, West Branch, Iowa As in past years, Bishop Burk invites rostered leaders to take time to gather with colleagues for a service of Holy Communion on Monday of Holy Week, March 25, at 11:00 am. Whether this is among the busiest days of the year or a much needed day of sabbath rest, this once-a-year gathering is for the sake of nourishing the servants who regularly offer nourishment to the people of God. We will worship at Bethany Lutheran Church in West Branch. As in previous years, this service will include the affirmation of vocational promises. While this service of Word and Sacrament will provide nourishment for the week ahead, especially the Three Days, time with colleagues is also nourishing. So please consider remaining after worship for lunch at Bethany. Lunch will be provided by the women of Bethany for $5 (or a donation of your choosing). If you plan to stay for lunch, please RSVP to Lori Uhl (uhl@seiasynod.org or 319.338.1273) no later than Wednesday, March 20. |
Lutheran Day on the Hill Resources  Join Lutheran Services in Iowa (LSI) for Lutheran Day on the Hill. This day is essential in giving a voice to those who are not heard, for seeking social justice and for empowering people to exercise their right and responsibility to be part of the legislative process. Individuals and church social ministry teams can learn more about advocacy, hear from LSI clients and have the opportunity to talk to your legislators about making sure critical human services are available for children, families and individuals. Below are resources for your congregation to spread the word about this important event. Online Information & Registration |
