The memory verse for this week is Galatians 2:20. "I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me."
Children's bulletins and crayons are available from the table at the back of the worship space. Please, bring your children to the service. Children pick up on the songs of the liturgy easily. Most of our services also include a Bible story for young children.
There is a box of handmade greeting cards on the back table. We suggest a donation of $2 per card. Proceeds from the cards go to Orphan Grain Train, a service organization affiliated with the Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod, that ships clothing, blankets, and other relief items around the world.
