On Sunday mornings our primary focus is not angels. Our usual focus is on Jesus, our Savior and us–the ones he came to save. It is good for us then for us to set aside time to learn what God’s word teaches us about his mighty servants, the angels. On Wednesday, September 29th at 7 PM we celebrate the minor festival of St. Michael and All Angels.


We look forward to seeing you there.

Our Vacation Bible School is August 9-11th, from 6-8 PM. Our theme this year is Dive In! So, I imagine it might be a good idea to have your children wear clothes that they can get wet in.

6-6:30 PM	Dinner
6:30-7 PM	Craft
7-7:30 PM	Bible Lesson
7:30-8 PM	Games

You can download the registration form HERE.


See you there!

While sandblasting, road crews discovered extensive damage to the base of the bridge. We do not know when they will re-open the bridge. But, it doesn’t look like it will be any time soon. So, please plan accordingly.

On Wednesday, June 23rd, at 7 PM we are celebrating the birthday of the Lutheran Church. Actually, we’re celebrating it a little early. On June 25th, 1530, at the Diet of Augsburg, the German princes presented their faith to their emperor, Charles V. This then became the birth of the church which would later bear the name “Lutheran.”


On June 23rd we will will look at what it means to be Lutheran. We invite you to join us for worship: June 23rd, 7 PM.

On Saturday, May 22nd at 2 PM, we celebrate as Tony and Keri promise their enduring love and faithfulness to each other before their Savior, Jesus and their treasured friends and family.


If you would like more details, you are welcome to visit Tony and Keri’s Wedding Site.

Our gracious Lord has called home a longtime member of our congregation, John Achtzehn.
