The movie is entitled, “One by One”. It follows the true story of David Rosenow, from his beginnings as an undertaker, a detective, and finally as an ordained pastor in the WELS. Following our business meeting, a potluck meal will be served. Please bring a dish to share. If you have any questions please contact Richard Ash at richardash46@gmail.com, or call 262-457-3000.

Topic: Questions of Christmas is written for women who delight in wondering about little moments in the Christmas story. It provides opportunity to meditate on the things of God. As Mary wonders how she could possibly become pregnant, we wonder, “How can it be?” that God would actually send his Son to purchase our salvation? We wonder, “What is Jesus’ family ancestry?” This tiny but essential thread of Jesus’ bloodline reminds us that we are now part of his family because of who he is and what he did. Like the shepherds and wisemen, we wonder “Where will we find him?” In a chaotic, noisy world, how can we find our way to the Savior? Praise be to God that he shows us the way to join him in a relationship, full of grace and love—through Jesus.

Our Sunday School team has been working hard this summer to rethink how we teach and encourage our little lambs on Sunday mornings. Introducing Sunday Bible Explorers, our new and improved program for kids in 3K (potty trained, please!) through 4th grade! This year, lessons will be organized into groups focusing on a central theme, ranging from 3 to 6 weeks. Every Sunday will include songs, crafts, games, and of course, learning about Jesus! Please register at this link . Our first theme is Beginnings.
Sunday Bible Explorers will meet Sunday mornings from 8:45 – 9:45 starting on September 13.
Attention Jesus-loving High Schoolers – We’re also looking for high school volunteers to help us on Sundays! If you love working with younger kids doing crafts or playing games, this is a great way to get involved at church and fill volunteer hour requirements. Please contact Julie Ehlers if you’re interested in helping!
