SMALL CONGREGATION GATHERINGS for singing and responses will resume May 3rd, at 9:30am (for approximately ten and under) by registration/invitation only. Precautions, warnings, social distancing, and sanitary practices concerning the virus remain in effect. Attendees however, will be asked to sing and do vocal responses on a microphone for the enhancement of the live-streamed services to our shut-in and socially isolation member.  Entrance is gained by the double glass doors on the East side of the church.

MAIN STREET LIVING:  This is the Life at 10:00 a.m. and Worship Service at 10:30 a.m.  See BlogSpot for monthly schedule.

CHECK OUT THE NEW GIVING LINK for online offerings. See Joyful Response Give Now in the links section on the bottom right hand side of our website. St. Paul Lutheran has been set up to accept bank transfers as a new option to writing checks or cash for offering donations.  Click the link or contact one of the Finance Officers:  Penny Saarie 351-7848., Vicky Huber, Joni Knittel, or Treasure Sharon Pfeiffer.

FUNERALS:  If a death occurs, call me and arrange with the funeral home to have a grave-side committal within 24-48 hours. I will be there. We can remain socially distant in groups of ten or less outside. When this all straightens out, we can have a visitation (with a picture), a memorial funeral service, followed by the fellowship meal at a later date. Not ideal, but I think the best solution.

ALSO PLEASE HELP OTHERS who do not have email or electronic communications, or not getting calling post to get them set up soon, as we do not know what the future holds.

Updates, announcements, and revised schedules will be posted on our website (http://stpaulfreemanlcms.blogspot.com)  Videos on Facebook (St. Paul Lutheran Freeman), and YouTube (St. Paul Lutheran LCMS Freeman SD) To sign up for events: (https://signupschedule.com/stpaulfreeman)
