Welcome to CID! We pray it is a year filled with Jesus, love, and learning! Blessings to Vicar Seibert and his wife as well as the congregation at Our Savior’s!

We welcome Vicar Nick Seibert and his fiancé Katherine. Nick will begin his year of Vicarage (pastoral internship) at Our Savior’s in July. Praise be to God as he continues to send workers into his harvest field (Matthew 9:38).

Check out our very own CID has a family in the photo! Maybe you know them too!

What's your favorite way to bring the little ones to Jesus and share his love?

With a gift of $500,000 of “seed money” already given toward the 2026 National Offering, the goal is to match that gift with another $500,000 raised. This means $1 million to help congregations, districts and Recognized Service Organizations to tell the next generation the Good News of Christ’s resurrection. Learn more about the National Offering and how you can support this work. Link in comments.
