Lutheran Service Book Dedicated Today Thank you to everyone who purchased a hymnal. They will serve as a confessional statement of what we believe, teach, and confess (a devotional and worship resource) for visitors and members alike. We will gracefully retire the old hymnals. If any one would like to keep an old hymnal please do so. We have found a country Church that will gladly use the rest. If you still have not paid for your new hymnal, please see the office. Thanks.

Car Enthusiasts, would you like to help organize the Revrev Rods & Relics Run? Look for more information on the back bulletin board or contact Pastor Jan Pastucha at 582-1676 or 632-6911, or e-mail him at Immanuel@mts.net.
