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

purity, and see the Sacraments rightly administered.

PERSONAL NOTE
FROM PASTOR: I would just like everyone to know how impressed I am with all
those who helped with Vacation (Vocation) Bible School this past week. I
talked them into new material, so it was different than what they were used to,
so after a rocky start, they stepped up to the challenge and taught the kids
God's Holy Word (including the Ten Commandments! - but especially, that Christ
died for you!) Thanks be to God for the saints that risked their sanity
to teach those young Christians, and also thanks be to God for His gracious
gift revealed in the little ones who come to Him. If you know of someone
who helped with VBS, please thank them on behalf of a member of the
congregation of St. Paul, Freeman. Solo De Gloria.
LADIES AID and
LWML will not meet in August. Cheri Knittel is on Altar Flowers
for August and Visiting Helper is open.
