In Our Prayers: These are the Lutheran schools in the Michigan District that we will be praying for this week:

Devotion of the Week: The 5th-6th graders have their writing assignments posted outside their classroom. Their assignment was to write about their names and how their parents chose to name them. After the excitement of finding out that you will be having a baby, is the big question of, "What will we name our child?" Some have a name chosen right away and some don't know even after the baby has been born. In Isaiah 43:1 we read these words, "But now thus says the Lord, he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: 'Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.'" God has called each of us by name! We were created in His image and are His FORGIVEN and redeemed children. Matthew 10:30 says God even knows the number of hairs on your head! We are special and are made God's children at our baptisms when water and God's Word create faith in us. What a blessing we have to be known by name by our heavenly Father and to know that we are His FORGIVEN children because of what Jesus has done for us. May God continue to bless us in our Lenten journey as we focus on Jesus, our Savior, who calls us by name because we are His. 

Our Condolences: Our prayers are with the Marsh family upon the death of Ellie and Trevor's grandfather, Robert L. Marsh. May God surround this family with His comfort and peace. (Click here for Obituary.)

Serving in Worship: Wednesday, March 15, the Seraphim Choir (5th-8th grade) will be singing in the Lenten Worship Service. Please have your child in the multi-purpose room at 6:10pm. The Seraphim Choir will sing again on Sunday, March 19. Please have your child in the multi-purpose room at 9:10am ready to warm up. Thank you!

Chapel Offerings: Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples” 1 Chronicles 16:24. Your chapel offering gifts will enable World Mission to take the gospel message where it’s never been. Thank you for your prayers and support that help our Hearts for Jesus World Mission project to reach those who’ve never heard the Good News of Jesus Christ.
