Resurrection Evangelical Lutheran Church Gretna Nebraska

Pastor Lisa & Mo Moghazy, and Sandy Terry and LeRoy Hoyer had the joy of attending the Nebraska Synod Annual Meeting. It was a blessed time filled with learning, worship, and inspiring workshops.

We were grateful for the leadership and presence of Bishop Scott Johnson, Presiding Bishop Yehiel Curry and our ELCA leadership, whose guidance continues to strengthen our shared mission.

Moments like these remind us of the beauty of being church together: growing, connecting, and serving side by side. We return encouraged, renewed, and excited for what God is doing in and through our community.

Underground had an awesome night last Wednesday! 🍩🎉 Our youth rolled up their sleeves, jumped right in, and baked donuts together — and WOW did the kitchen smell incredible. 🍩🔥 Even better than the donuts? The laughter, teamwork, and conversations that filled the room.

There’s something special about watching our youth learn, create, and grow side by side. God shows up in community, in joy, and yes… even in flour-covered counters and sticky fingers. 🍩😄

Huge thanks to every youth who came — and guess what? There’s always room for more. Bring a friend and join the fun!

Mixed. Kneaded. Rising. Shaped. 🍩 God is using every part of their story!

Last Wednesday was all energy and laughter — hoops, teamwork, and a reminder that faith shows up even in the fun moments. As summer opens up and we get more free time, we discussed how we can use it to grow closer to God — through prayer, service, or just showing kindness wherever we go.

Join us this Wednesday for more fun at HS Underground

On this Memorial Day, we remember the men and women who laid down their lives for others. As we honor their sacrifice, we look to the One who laid down His life for the world. May God comfort the grieving and guide us in the way of peace.

On Wednesday this week our High School Underground Youth served the community by donating and walking items over to Goodwill. Afterward, they had a blast playing Gaga Ball and continued growing together in their faith journey.

As a reminder this group meets at 7p.m. on Wednesdays and we would always love to see more join us.
