 IN OUR DAILY PRAYERS this week we remember those who are hospitalized, those in cancer treatment programs, our shut-in and inactive members, and at least 2 family members or friends in your life who do not yet know Christ.

THANK YOU to Mannes Floral for the bouquet of Roses in remembrance of Memorial Day. 

BAPTISM OF KYLIE NEUHARTH – We joyfully welcome Kylie Lorinda Neuharth into our Christian family today through the Sacrament of Holy Baptism!  We thank God for giving her new birth, true faith, salvation and eternal life, and we pray that God’s holy angels will watch over her throughout her life.  Kylie is the daughter of Glen and Kari Neuharth.  Please greet them in the receiving line following our worship service. The bouquet of flowers on the altar are in loving memory of Kylie's Grandpa, Darrell Swensen.

LADIES AID will meet on June 6 at 7:00 p.m. with Elsie and Ella Hein as hostesses. Bible Study will be Lesson 12 – “Why Do We Keep Fooling Around” followed by the Business Meeting.

YOUTH GROUP CAMPOUT will be held June 7 – 9th at Lake Menno.

SAVE THE DATE: It's long overdue but we are planning a fellowship Potluck to welcome and meet our new members on June 9th. What can be more pleasant than sharing a meal with our fellow church family.    We will plan on starting at 11:00. Please plan on coming and helping host a meal with great food for our new friends. See you there!!! Thank You! The St. Paul Samaritans

EXCITING NEWS:  The Samaritan group is planning to print a St. Paul Lutheran cookbook.  It is our hope to include up to 3 recipes from each member.  In the next week you will receive by mail your recipe collection sheets along with complete instructions.  All recipes must be submitted by June 30.  It is our intention to have the books for sale at the Bazaar in November.   

SUPPORT OUR TROOPS – Next week we will be accepting donations to provide Military Biblesticks (a field-friendly Audio Bible preloaded with the New Testament) to our military chaplains overseas for use in counseling sessions, Bible studies, chapel services, etc.  Several thousand have already been shipped; many more have been requested.  Thank you for supporting our men and women in uniform and thank you for helping to bring God’s Word of comfort and hope to them!

NATIONAL CONVENTION OFFERING – The next 2 weeks (June 9th and 16th) we will be accepting a freewill offering for the upcoming national convention to help support the work of our Synod, both at home and abroad.  Please see the bulletin insert for additional information.

Main Street Living – June 2nd – Kid’s Crossing shows how those who love Jesus obey Him and God’s laws.  The featured speaker is Rev. Kevin Vogt from Holy Cross Lutheran Church in Dakota Dunes.  The program is interpreted for the hearing impaired.

THANK YOU: "I would like to thank you for presenting me with this year's Melcher Scholarship. Your generosity is greatly appreciated. I will be attending South Dakota State University this fall for psychology and pre-physical therapy and through this award my financial burden has been lightened. Thank you again."
