These sweet little girls didn’t call each other, but they still arrived this morning at church tripleting! From their dresses all the way to their sandals! Salem is blessed to have them.

Today we celebrated the high school graduation of Wyatt Hitz and renewed our promises made to him at his baptism. Pictured with Wyatt are his parents, Andy and Jodi, Nancy Taylor representing the quilters, and Pastor Jim. The quilt was given as a reminder to Wyatt of the warmth and love that God, his parents, and his Salem family wrap him in as he leaves home to take his next steps at UNI this fall.

This evening we were pleased to be a part of the Creston Community School District Senior Awards Night. We were there to present an award made possible this year by an anonymous donation. The award was to recognize this young man’s devotion to the life and mission of Salem and his personal example of Christian faith. It was such an honor to present this year’s Salem Lutheran Church award of $500 to Wyatt Hitz! Congratulations, Wyatt!

The children ministered to C.A.R.E. today using funds from their Noisy Offering collection. They shopped, delivered, learned about the rescue, and shared treats and toys with the cats and dogs. Salem’s youngest disciples have big hearts for God’s creatures.
