Announcements
 
New Member Orientation -- January 6!
 
Interested in becoming a member at Our Savior's Lutheran Church?  There will be a New Member Orientation on Sunday, January 6, at 10:30 am at the church. Orientation is a time for us to share information about what it means to be a member of Our Savior's and for you to ask any questions you have of us. If you would like to join but cannot attend on this date, please talk to Pastor Christine to schedule a different time. New Member Introduction will be Sunday, January 13 at both services. Note that membership gives you the privilege of voting at the next annual meeting scheduled for Sunday, January 20.
Guatemala Anyone?
 
Our Savior's will be traveling to Guatemala in June of 2019 to visit our companions in Zaculeu and would love to have you join with others for this opportunity. There will be an information meeting about this trip on Monday, January 7, at 7:00 pm in the choir room at Our Savior's. This will be a good time to learn what all is involved with such a trip and a time to ask questions. We hope you will join us.  If you are unable to attend but are interested, talk with Sandy Fabio or Becky Maier to make sure you have the information.
