10 am Sunday In-Person & Livestream Worship Services

At the congregational meeting last fall, we elected Kathy Bauhof and Barbara Burnham to serve as elders, as well as Nancy Best and Dave Tengler to serve as deacons.  We also elected Hope Larson-Wolbrink and Cooper Sowle to serve as Youth Advisory Elders.  This Sunday, we make it official during worship as they will be ordained and installed to their new roles of servant leadership.  It’s one of my favorite Sundays!

This Sunday, January 4th, is Epiphany Sunday. During worship, we’ll remember the Wise Ones from the east who followed the star to worship Jesus.  During the service, we’ll take down the decorations we placed on the tree at the beginning of Advent.  Even though the decorations are being put away, the light is still coming. 

 I love the verse from one of my favorite Christmas Carols: In the Bleak Midwinter:

Our God, Heaven cannot hold Him, nor earth sustain;

Heaven and earth shall flee away when He comes to reign.

In the bleak midwinter a stable place sufficed

The Lord God Almighty, Jesus Christ.

We hope you will join us as we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ - the coming of the Light - this evening at 5pm with music, candlelight, and communion. 

Are things going the way you expected them this holiday season?  Things were not going as expected when a man named Joseph learned that his fiancée was pregnant and that he wasn’t the father.  Talk about holiday family drama!  Yet, he was told in a dream to remain faithful to her.  God is with us, even in the drama… especially in the drama.
