Announcements

Stewardship: 1 Peter 4:12-19; 5:6-11: St. Peter points out that regardless of how we might be mocked or ridiculed for managing all of life and life’s resources for God’s purposes, we will be blessed in this life and especially blessed in the life to come. What joy we have in knowing that what we do as Christian stewards really does have eternal consequences

Life Quote for May 4 "You might recall that it is at the Ascension that Jesus enters the Holy of Holies—heaven itself and the presence of God—being taken up in the midst of the clouds. . . there . . . your Great High Priest continually makes intercession for you—a beloved child of the heavenly Father." Rev. Daniel Feusse, Concordia Lutheran Church, Clearwater, Nebraska. A Life Quote from Lutherans For Life / www.lutheransforlife.org / 888-364-LIFE

Video Introduction to the New Hymnal (Lutheran Service Book) will immediately follow worship today. Please stay to learn more about this important resource we’ll be using in our worship services.

Join us for bible study every Wednesday in the church basement, 9:00am.

Grazie!  The spaghetti lunch held on April 27 was successful thanks to many of you who lent a hand to make it successful.  Our proceeds totaled $1052.00 plus many donations for food items needed to prepare the meal. (Our additional grocery and bakery costs of $171.30 were donated by the Callies Farms Families) so that full amount was deposited to the Harvest Festival Account.  These funds may be used for church maintenance, repair and upkeep projects in the future.  Care and Congregation program funds under Thrivent may also be applied pending approval.  We had a great work crew from the set up to tear down, advertising and decorating, preparing and serving, organizing and cashiering.  The salads and desserts were wonderful and very much appreciated.  Again, Grazie to each of you who helped and participated with this event!

Confirmation Questioning: This Wednesday at 7:30pm Evan and Lindsy will confess the faith they have been taught. Please come and let them do as Jesus says, So everyone who acknowledges me before men, I also will acknowledge before my Father who is in heaven, (Matthew 10:32 ESV)
