Of all the gifts for which we thank God, above all is the
gift of Himself to us, His erring but redeemed children! “Whom have I in
Heaven but You? And earth has nothing I desire besides you” (Psalm 73:25).
Our purpose is to reach out to families and individuals of all
backgrounds and bring
them into healing and transforming relationships with the Lord Jesus and with others in His Church
through the sharing of God’s Word and Sacraments.

FROM PASTOR JOHNSON. “If you
are in the hospital or are in need of pastoral care, please notify Maria in the
church office. If it is an emergency,
please call my mobile phone (in printed copy of chimes). Please don’t hesitate to call me at any hour
if it is important; I keep the phone with me at all times. If the matter is important enough to think
about calling a pastor, by all means call me. Please do not think you will disturb me or I
will think the matter unimportant.
Thanks!”
ANNOUNCEMENTS
SUNDAY SCHOOL. Today in Sunday School the children learned that as God did with Paul, so
God does with us. Through the Law we are crushed by the weight of our sin and
are helpless. As God revived Paul through Ananias (Acts 9:1–31), He revives us
through our pastors with the proclamation of His Word and the administration of
His Sacraments granting forgiveness, life, and salvation to all who believe.
Talk to your children about how the Sacraments and God’s Word revive you so
that you may live as God’s child.
WOMEN’S
RETREAT. Ladies please mark your calendars for
Saturday, October 25…This is the date set for our woman’s retreat
entitled: Stone Soup: Bringing Something to the Mix.
What? A little
something special to warm the heart!

Why? I need a retreat – we all could go for a
little re-treat… We will need time to step back and reflect…Stay tuned for more
information.

I BOUGHT YOU A…candy bar. I doubt it…prove it: show me the candy
bar. I doubled your allowance. I doubt it…prove it: show me the money. I’ll get you into Disney World. I doubt it…prove it: show me the admission
ticket. Have you ever doubted what
someone said or promised? My guess is
that the answer is “yes.” Thomas,
despite the fact that he spent three years with Jesus, would not believe the
words of the other disciples that Jesus had risen from the dead. He doubted.
It wasn’t until he saw the hands and side of his Savior that his doubt
was cast away. The open tomb…our Lord’s
resurrection, is the proof of our salvation.
There is never a doubt that Jesus earned heaven for each of us. This was the message Ollie Hemmann shared with the children in chapel this past
week. This week’s chapel speaker will be
Doug Grebasch.
