Regarding participation in the Blessed Sacrament of Christ’s True Body and Blood: Because oneness at the altar presupposes oneness in faith and doctrine, we expect that all who commune at the Lord’s altar are members in good standing of an LCMS congregation. We ask that all who commune register on a communion card. All visitors should state their home LCMS congregation. First time visitors please speak to Pastor Dreyer. Individual cups for those desiring them are available as you approach the altar.

readings for today Micah 7:18-20, I Timothy 1:12-17, Luke 15:1-10

today’s topic     Who are you? What drives your day? What do you value in relationships? How do you understand respect for one another? How do you treat people especially those who do not deserve your respect? What conducts your decision making each day? Today, we reflect on these questions in view of God's respect for life and each individual in Christ Jesus.
