"Once you have surrendered your life to God, there is no turning back—physically, mentally, or spiritually. The old has passed away, and through Christ, I have become new. I choose to walk forward in faith, trusting the One who transformed my heart."

Bring your lawn chairs and enjoy live music, popcorn machine, soft serve ice cream. Corey Goeders from Pocahontas, IA will be on hand to give rides with his horse drawn wagon for kids accompanied by their parents around Lakota.

Dust off your boots, 🤠 grab your cowboy hats, and come and glorify the Lord to the fullest. 🙏 May we gather in praise and worship, lifting his name high with joyful hearts & thankful spirits. Ride on in and celebrate the goodness of God with us at St Paul Lutheran Church in Lakota.
Thank you to the family of Joyce Wentworth for the memorial, it will be used to pay for the Ingham Lake Camp Counselors for this week. 🙏

True dedication to a cause demands undivided commitment. The adage that one cannot climb two ladders simultaneously holds true in spiritual pursuits. The challenge facing modern Christianity lies in its apparent pursuit of personal power alongside its devotion to Jesus, leading to an unstable foundation.

James 1:8 this is a double - minded man, unstable in all his ways.

Be convicted to the Lord 🙏
