SCHOLARSHIPS: There are a few scholarship opportunities for LCMS high school seniors. See the posters on the bulletin board for details on each one.
MISSION TRIP SUPPORT: The same weekend of April 2024, when IDW was hit by a massive storm front, another EF3 tornado ripped through Sulphur, OK, hometown of DCE Jonathon Bailey of Redeemer, Sioux City. It flattened the entire east side of town and sadly took the life of one individual. At this time, the community of Sulphur is still trying to rebuild! The people who could afford to repair their homes or had insurance have already completed those repairs. But some cannot afford to purchase materials or hire people to help. Redeemer Lutheran Church of Sioux City will be taking a group of 25 youth and adults on a mission trip in June of this year and is trying to raise $18,000 to cover travel expenses as well as materials for the people who need help. If you choose to support this project, please send donations by May 31st to the district office – c/o Julie Mann memo “OK Mission Trip”. Thank you.
EQUIPPING THE PRIESTHOOD OF ALL BELIEVERS: Issues, Etc. is a podcast and radio talk show produced by Lutheran Public Radio in Collinsville, IL and hosted by LCMS Pastor Todd Wilken. Recent topics include: Speaking Truth to Power, The 98th Academy Awards, Leisure & Love of Neighbor, Philippians 4:8: “Think on These Things,” Reaching Out to Gen Z Woman and more.
