Happy Easter! ✝️

Happy Easter! Christ is risen! Alleluia!

"They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they went in they did not find the body. While they were perplexed about this, suddenly two men in dazzling clothes stood beside them. The women were terrified and bowed their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, 'Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here but has risen'" (Luke 24:2-5).

Exciting news for our congregation! 😊

I am excited to announce the three congregations selected for the Growing Accessible Churches, One Congregation at a Time program!

I cannot wait to work with these churches and see what they do ❤️

Today is Ash Wednesday.

Gracious God, out of your love and mercy you breathed into dust the breath of life, creating us to serve you and our neighbors. Call forth our prayers and acts of kindness, and strengthen us to face our mortality with confidence in the mercy of your Son, Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. —Bread for the Day

Ash Wednesday services are at noon and 7pm, with an evening stream option.

Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return as we begin the season of Lent and journey with Christ to the cross.

The final prediction of our SOUPER Bowl Canned Food Drive has been made! While the New England Patriots side of the table gained some donations as the week went on, the Seattle Seahawks side is clearly the favored side to win tonight’s game!

Thank you to everyone who donated for a great cause (North Hills Community Outreach) and joined in the fun! If you didn’t get a chance to participate this time, have no fear, we’ll be bringing this Food Drive back again next year!

Join us this Lent as we explore and discuss the ELCA’s most recent social statement on “Faith and Civic Life: Seeking the Well-Being of All.” We will be using a study guide provided by LAMPa as the framework for our conversations. Printed copies of the social statement and the participant guide will be available at the church starting this weekend.

We will gather on the following Wednesdays at 7:00pm in Highland Hall for our conversations: February 11, February 25, March 4, March 11, March 18, & March 25.
