Mark 5:1-20 

Are we ever afraid of the good that Jesus might do in our lives? Do we ever try to send Jesus away? Why?


Blessings, Pastor Ann.

Annual Meeting Prep

Voters were sent an email containing the annual report and relevant documents. Please take note:

*Changes to the Constitution...

In preparation for the Annual Meeting, please take time to review the proposed changes to the constitution. We believe that might be the most time-consuming part of the meeting if we aren't prepared to discuss it beforehand. 

*Pledge Cards Needed...

Please drop off to the office or email to finances@newdaylutheran.org

Steve will update the numbers on the annual report if it has changed between now and the meeting.

Feb 4th New Day Fellowship...

St. Luke's will be using the parish hall on Sunday, February 4 when we normally meet for coffee. We're wanting to find out if some of you would like to meet at a restaurant or coffee shop following worship. We'd like to get a count so we can let the establishment know. We'd gladly accept suggestions for locations as well. Please email Theresa at church@newdaylutheran.org if you'd like to have your name added to the count and to make location suggestions.

I am working on the next few craft projects for the kids, but I need your help!


  • Does anyone have a metal stamper, or the ability to borrow one? If you look at this link for washer bracelets, you'll understand what I want to achieve. If you also look at this link it shows you the tool needed to truly customize the bracelets for a certain project.


  • I know scheduling all the children at the same time is challenging, so I have come up with a super simple at home project as a solution to something else I am working on! Could you take some colorful construction paper, trace each hand of each child, and then cut them out and bring to church? Make sure you write on the back side who the hand belongs to...your name won't be displayed, it just helps me keep track of whose hands I have! Feel free to get creative at home with your paper hands! If you want to glitter them up, or color them in, or attach sequins.......that is just fine!


  • ALSO.........see below picture! We are wanting to collect and save Christmas cards for a project for next Christmas......so before you throw them out........ps........other special occasion or holiday cards are desired as well!!

2024 ELCA Youth Gathering
