Good Morning! We want to welcome everyone and give a special welcome to our guests. If you are visiting, please fill out the visitor cards located in the pews. They can be placed in the offering plate when passed. The leaders of the Growing Deeper ministry have heard from the Lord and decided to bring this ministry to an end. As a consistory, we will honor their wishes, but we want to specifically thank Joan Melde, Marcy Gerdes, Vonnie Erickson and Angie Kranz for their faithful leadership. Office hours. Amber’s office hours have changed to Monday 9:30-4:30, Wednesday 8-3, and Thursday 8-3. If you need anything pertaining to the church, please contact her during those hours or by email and she will respond at her first availability. If it’s an emergency and after hours, please contact an elder or Amber’s cell. Church Policy Update. The use of any rooms or church property will now go through the church office first. Please see Amber for the availability.

Prayer Requests and Updates Please keep in prayer the struggles of life in the communities around you. Everyone has something they are struggling with. Please pray for guidance for those around you to get them through their struggles, and patience for those who do not understand. These struggles may be small or large, seen or unseen, but they are still struggling to get by. Please keep Pastor Michael in your prayers as he leaves on October 12th for his mission trip to Haiti. He will return to the office on October 23rd.
