Verse For The Week:
"When Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, 'I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such faith.' " Luke 7:9
PASTOR'S MESSAGE
Jesus was so astonished at the faith of the Centurion he told the crowd that this man had greater faith than any he had seen in all Israel. This Centurion's faith was surprising on a number of counts. He was a Roman citizen; he was honored by the Jews; he recognized his own unworthiness; and most amazingly, he believed that if Jesus would simply say it, his daughter would be healed.
We Minnesotans like to pack a years' worth of living in 3 summer months! It's great to get out of town to travel, visit friends and relatives, and explore places as a family. Spiritual growth is important, too, so if your schedule takes you away from Sunday worship, be sure to worship with us at 6:30pm Mondays each week beginning June 6. Our Sunday worship schedule is 9:00am worship, 10:00am Adult Bible Class.
For spiritual nourishment on-the-go, stop by church narthex to grab your complimentary copy of Portals of Prayer and My Devotions published by Concordia Publishing House
...EVEN FROM YOUR CABIN...
God's rich gifts are so evident, especially in summertime! Don't let summer schedules keep you from honoring Him with your first fruits!
