May 19th Announcements
REMINDER: Pastor is on vacation this Wednesday and Thursday. No morning Bible classes, Vespers, or Table Talk. Confessions Study, which is normally held on the fourth Thursday, is moved to the following week, May 30th.
RED PARAMENTS: Red is a power color and is appropriate for use on Pentecost Sunday. On this day we remember the power and fire of “the Lord and Giver of Life,†who revealed himself as the promised one. The color red communicates the motif of strength and power the Holy Spirit gives in order for God's people to call on the name of Jesus Christ and share that powerful name with others.
