Divine Service, May 17, 2026. "Christians Bear Witness: Jesus is Alive"

There were some technical issues with the microphone this morning, so much of the service is very quiet. I am working on getting the text of the sermon to share, but in the meantime, you can view the contents of the bulletin here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DH_8n3E4ipkpI-OSVBbPnVE3ji_6q8gXuM0mLWAtbD4/edit?usp=sharing
