HOLY COMMUNION is celebrated in our worship
service today. What a joy and privilege! In this
Sacrament our Lord gives unto us not only bread and wine, but also His very
body and blood to eat and drink. In this Sacrament He assures us
that our sins are forgiven and He strengthens our faith. To our
guests who desire to receive Holy Communion, we ask that you consider the
following: If you do not believe in Jesus as your Savior, do not
believe in the Real Presence of the Sacrament, or have never received
instruction on how to prepare yourself for Communion, you should refrain from
receiving the Sacrament, but are encouraged to come to the altar for a
blessing, indicated by folding the arms over the chest. We do this
not to offend, but to honor the faith we hold at St. Paul
Lutheran. If you have any questions regarding communion, please
speak to the Pastor or an Elder before service begins.
IN YOUR PRAYERS Pray this week for; Those who are recovering
from surgery, hospitalization, or sudden illnesses (Harlan, Orville, Joy, Marvin,
Brandon, Tina, Sharon and Marlene) and for those who have long term health
issues and/or difficulty coming to services on their own (Connie, Bernice, Lee,
Lavonne, Lorna, Melton, Millie, Ruth, Alice, Norby, Wyona, Lucille). Please add to your prayer list, the family
of Rev. John T.P. Werner, who died Wednesday, morning May 22.
