The High School youth who are raising money for their trip to the ELCA Youth Gathering in Houston this summer are selling pizzas for the Super Bowl next weekend- and they are delicious! They are encouraging pre-orders so they can have enough supplies and nobody misses out. You can contact the church office (701) 483-1550 with your order or grab form from church. The 16" Pizzas are only $15 and your topping choices are: Pepperoni, Sausage, Onion, Mushroom. Remember, all the proceeds support the youth and they can be frozen!

An interesting 4 minute piece from NPR about the 500th anniversary of the Reformation and some reconciliation that has taken place between Lutherans and Catholics. You can listen to it to help prepare for our Joint Worship with our partner congregations at 9:30 this Sunday at Peace Lutheran followed by a potluck. We hope you can join us!

On October 31, Catholics and Protestants take note of the 500th anniversary of the Reformation, when the monk Martin Luther denounced Roman Catholicism. Most of the issues he raised have since been resolved. Still, divisive issues remain, such as the role of women and the authority of the clergy.

I wrote this parody in honor of the 500th anniversary of Luther's 95 Theses. Hope you enjoy!
