Alleluia, Christ is risen.

1 Corinthians 15:20: "But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep."

He Is Risen! Blessings to all this Easter Sunday 🙏 💜

The church is currently without power, which would make it difficult to hold our 7:30 p.m. worship service.

If the power does not come back on by 7:30 p.m., I will still be here to give the gift of Holy Communion to members of the church who may wish to receive it, but there would not be a full service.

We'll pray for all the members of our community affected by the outage, and for those working to restore it.

Join us for worship tomorrow, Wednesday February 18, at 7:30 p.m., for Ash Wednesday worship.

"Come, let us worship" (Psalm 95:6) is our Lenten theme this year. We'll explore the Biblical basis for why we worship the way we do as Lutheran Christians.

As a reminder: Wednesday catechism classes during Lent dismiss early, at 7:15 p.m., to accommodate Lenten worship.
