02/16/2014 Announcement

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

PLEASE REMEMBER that the back pews on each side of the church are reserved for families with small children (as noted on the signs). If you do not have small children, please courteously move forward so that our families who do have children can sit where it will be easier to take care of them.

THE LORD’S SUPPER at St. Paul Lutheran Church is administered in accordance with the Holy Scriptures and the Lutheran Confessions. It is celebrated in the confidence that we receive – in, with and under the consecrated bread and wine – our Savior’s true Body and Blood for the forgiveness of our sins. All who commune at this altar are making this public confession of the faith that we believe and teach as is written in the Holy Scriptures. If you are not a member of St. Paul Lutheran Church and yet desire to receive the Sacrament, please speak with the Pastor before the worship service.
