🧐 DID YOU KNOW?

✝️ Six years ago, Holy Week and the season of Easter looked and felt a bit different. Living Savior was faced with the same question as churches across the globe in 2020: how do we preach the gospel in a season of physical separation? Our church answered this question with drive-in services beginning on Palm Sunday. Makeshift pulpits were devised for our pastors. Audio was broadcast over a radio transmitter so everyone could listen in their vehicles. As the weather warmed, families sat in the AVL pavilion or spread out on blankets and lawn chairs. Recorded services were made available online with Living Savior members lending their voices to sing the hymns, including these adorable kids who performed I Am Jesus’ Little Lamb!

🙏 Many details of the pandemic are not remembered fondly. But the adversity we faced as a church gave us the opportunity to show resilience and dedication to God’s Word, banding together to make sure our preaching and teaching would not cease under tough circumstances.

📖 “And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.” (Hebrews 10:24-25)

🥳 We're looking back on our history as we celebrate 25 years as Living Savior. Join us for a special worship service, dinner, and party at the AVL campus on Sunday, April 26, 2026!

🧐 DID YOU KNOW?

✝️ “Baptismal waters cover me!” Living Savior has been blessed to witness many cleansed in the waters of holy baptism over 25 years, just as we did with baby Ezra this past Sunday. In his Small Catechism, Martin Luther explains that baptism works these specific, irreplaceable blessings through water and the Word:

💧 Forgiveness of sin
💧 Deliverance from death and the devil
💧 Eternal salvation given to all who believe this, as the words and promises of God declare

🙏 “God saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life. This is a trustworthy saying.” (Titus 3:5-8)
