WE ARE GLAD YOU ARE WITH US TODAY

IN YOUR PRAYERS - this week please remember those who are recovering from surgery and illness, 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 know Christ as they could, that they would accept the invitation to come to Church with you to hear God's Word preached in its purity, and see the Sacraments rightly administered.

MAIN STREET LIVING –May 13^th 10:30 AM-Worship Service-Today’s message is presented by Rev. Jason Letsche, Associate Pastor at Blessed Redeemer Lutheran Church in Brandon, SD.  The message is based on John 17:11-19 and is titled “No Reduction in Force”. 

PRINTED SERVICES AVAILABLE.  For those who have difficulty handling or maneuvering the hymnal, or for those who just plain want to use them, we are currently printing some services out and putting them in the bulletin.  So, if you find it difficult to heft the hymnal, or find it difficult because you only can use one hand, or are new to our services and don't know where to turn next (visitor?), you may ask the usher for one of these printed services, where the entire service is printed and laid out in order.
