This Week: What Difference Does it Make?
Sunday's Theme: He lives to pour out his Spirit.

Why all the fuss about Easter? Is it really any different from any other day? What difference does it make if Jesus is dead or alive? All the difference in the world! Because Jesus lives, our eternity has been changed. Because Jesus lives, we have been transferred from death to life. Because Jesus lives, we live in peace, hope, and joy. If Jesus is still dead, we are still trapped in the darkness and death of our sins. But because he lives, all of that is different now! The Easter season is a joyful celebration of that truth. May God be with us as we rejoice in the differences that truth makes for us.

Pastors forming pastors to proclaim God’s praise.

May 20–22, Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary will hold a series of graduation events celebrating students who have prepared for lives of service in gospel ministry.

These days culminate in the assignment of future pastors into congregations and ministries where they will proclaim God’s Word, shepherd his people, and serve Christ’s church for years to come.

We give thanks for the professors, families, congregations, and fellow students who have encouraged and supported them along the way, and we pray God blesses these future pastors as they begin their ministry.

Wednesday Word- Acts 2:1-4
When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the rushing of a violent wind came from heaven, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw divided tongues that were like fire resting on each one of them. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other languages, since the Spirit was giving them the ability to speak fluently.

Guest will be Pastor Nathaniel Savage.
"… you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
After he said this, he was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid him from their sight.
They were looking intently up into the sky as he was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them. “Men of Galilee,” they said, “why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven.” Acts 1:8b-11
