Rev. Dr. Chad Lakies’ Lutheran Hour sermon this morning is titled “Peter’s Restoration-and Ours” and is based on John 21:1-19. His sermon tells us that Jesus forgives and restores us and He sends us out to offer this restoration to others, in His name.

 

Lutherans For Life quote: “Remember that our Savior was born into a human household…He is our Friend, our Brother, and He will help us in our time of need, especially when we seek Him out in God’s Word and fervently in prayer. As you relate to others in your home, ask God’s Holy Spirit to give you wisdom in difficult situations, mercy in abundance when forgiveness is needed and love to cover all your family’s interactions. Rev. Dr. Oswald Hoffman, former speaker of “The Lutheran Hour”

 

Following a request made to the Altar Guild, a quote for a set of rose colored paraments is being sought. The cost will be somewhere in the ballpark of $1,000.00. If you would be interested in contributing to this new set of paraments, please let Ilo or Lynn know.

 

Verse of the Week: Alleluia. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners. Alleluia. Matthew 9:13b

 

Serving on Sunday are: Nick Salisbury – elder, Dennis Florreich and John Holliday – ushers, Kelly Miller – music and Lisa Bielefeld – altar care.

 

Blessings on the rest of your week, and hope to see you on Sunday,

Lynn
