Be Encouraged...
While there are a lot of reasons to be afraid but it's important to be resilient . Show that you are a beacon of HOPE in this time of uncertainty. I hope this song reminds you that although it's hard right now for so many people, we will get through this. And when we do, we'll be stronger than ever!

Our Children Want a PenPal SignUp NOW!
Atonement has an abundance of adults who can read and write letters. Atonement also has a bunch of young people who are and will be challenged by an online life that may include school the fall and maybe even church. How about volunteering to be a PenPal with a young person? It's a chance to get offline, share stories and have a real relationship with someone. This ministry is just beginning at Atonement, if you're interested click here.
Volunteer at Habitat for Humanity!
Volunteers are needed on the Central MN Habitat for Humanity Faith Build site. The work will be outdoors and will require wearing masks and gloves and maintaining a safe physical distance whenever possible. In a few weeks, there will also be priming and painting opportunities available at the Veterans and Tiger Build locations. For more information or to volunteer, please contact Nancy Sturlaugson at 320-291-5761 or Jessica Dahl, the CMHFH volunteer manager, at 320-248-8256.
Wednesday Morning Men's Bible Study
You're invited to join a bunch of men who meet online every Wednesday Morning at 7 a.m. to study the upcoming Sunday Bible Story. Just click on this Zoom Link to join! If needed the password is: BibleStudy.
High School Youth Ministry
The biggest challenge to High School Youth Ministry is contacting the youth directly. Pastor Tim and Pastor John would like to contact youth directly to invite them to gather for ice cream, informal gatherings and service projects. The most effective way to communicate is via texts or other social media. We invite you submit contact information for High School Youth associated with Atonement that we can use it to connect with them directly.
