"Because of Easter"
With OSLC Musicians, Communion, and more

Two Sundays ago we celebrated Easter, the resurrection of Jesus Christ and we're now in the Easter Season, but what difference does Easter make in our lives? That's the question I want us to be thinking about this week. The Reading from Luke gives us some hints and we'll explore that today. Join us! - Pr. Kim
Jesus Appears to the Disciples
A Message from Pr. Kim
To members and friends of Our Savior’s,

On Friday, April 30 and Saturday, May 1, delegates from ELCA churches and institutions will gather for the Oregon Synod’s Annual Assembly. This year’s Assembly, like last year’s, will be conducted online. As this time draws near, I solicit your prayers for all those involved, from planning to presenting to participation. Serving as delegates from Our Savior’s will be myself along with Diane Dahlin.  

At last year’s Assembly, delegates voted to study reparations, calling for Bishop Laurie to form a task team while receiving input from other bodies and individuals, including delegates to the 2021 Synod Assembly. On the evening of April 30 (6:30), during cluster dinners delegates and other interested individuals will have a chance to share their thoughts and opinions. You are invited and strongly encouraged to share in this discussion. You will have to register for the event and can do so HERE.

Additionally, if you would like to keep abreast of the happenings of the Synod, you can sign up to receive the Synod Newsletter. Click here to sign up.

Blessings,

Pastor Kim 
Prayer of the Day
Holy and righteous God, you are the author of life, and you adopt us to be your children. Fill us with your words of life, that we may live as witnesses to the resurrection of your Son, Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen

One of Marianne Dikeman's many talents was her artistic painting of landscape and still-life subjects. Marianne passed away recently, but you can let her memory live on with her beautiful art work. For a contribution to Our Savior's in the amount of your choosing, you can take home one or more of the paintings. Most are mounted and framed. Call the church office 503-635-4563.
