THANK YOU! Many thanks to the members of Holy Cross for the generous donations to the Lutheran Institute of Regenerative Agriculture. The donations were delivered on Saturday and the students will be moving into their housing next week on Sunday, September 15th. Please keep the staff at LIRA and their students in your prayers as they begin this project together.
 
DIRECTORY PHOTOS DUE: If you have not had your photo taken for the directory yet, please see Kathryn or Rita after the service to get that done. You may also email a photo to the office secretary.

HIGHER THINGS VIDEOS: Higher Things has a new video series titled “I’m New Here.” It is designed specifically for the non-traditional confirmation student or those stepping into a Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod church for the first time. They serve as an entry point for understanding the core beliefs of Christianity through a Lutheran lens and as a  springboard for deeper discussions with their local LCMS pastor. Find it on their YouTube channel at the following link: https://youtu.be/haObH3ynnzg

RSVPs DUE: Please respond to the invitation to Pastor’s 20th Anniversary celebration if you haven’t already. The meal is catered, so we need an accurate count. You can RSVP on our website under the “events” tab, or email the office secretary. Thank you.
