Pastors Paragraphs

Ash Wednesday

The Season Lent Begins on Wednesday, February 17, 2010.  

During the Ash Wednesday service the pastor takes ashes on the end of his thumb and makes the sign of the cross on the forehead worshipers, saying these words: "Remember: you are dust, and to dust you shall return."  This ancient act is a gesture of repentance and a powerful reminder of our need for the cleansing of our sin.  The sign of the cross on the forehead of the worshipper is also a sign of hope and release from sin freely given by our Lord through his work on the cross.

A Vision for Our Savior Lutheran Church

Experiencing the Grace of Our Savior!

Here is a snapshot of what our congregation is moving toward by the grace of God. It is a picture our ministry . . .

WELCOME!  A New Look – Inside and Out    Our church glistens with new stained glass created by David Wixon and Associates of Glen Ellyn, IL.  We dedicate the glass to God’s glory.  

Here is a Bible Sudy you can use for personal, family or group study.  I have written it for the Men's Fishing/Fellowship event. 

Please let me know if you find it helpful.

Blessings!

Listen to the advertising and you will hear Walt Disney World is a place “Where dreams come true.” In a way . . .

It is exciting to move into a renovated church.  Our building, constructed in 1965, has given us more than forty years of excellent use.  But, as it goes with even the best of structures, our sanctuary showed its age with bubbling carpet, peeling paint and pews, dim lighting, and other concerns.  So now we have a “church makeover” so to speak.
