This week’s Worship Theme: Jesus Came to Bring Us Forgiveness and Rest For Our Souls
Our world is broken by sin and as each day brings us closer to its end and the Lord’s judgment and that brings worry and burden. But we are not without hope. Jesus came to bring us forgiveness and rest for our souls. The best is yet to come.

Communion Participation Roster
Before the worship service, we are asking our members to announce their desire to receive the Lord’s Supper on the sign-up sheet located in the entry to the sanctuary. This will help us keep our records updated and also help with our annual reports to the Synod. If you don’t get the chance to sign the sheet before worship, please do so after the service has ended.
God Wants us to Give Cheerfully
The Bible says, “Each person should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not out of grief nor out of compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver” (2 Corinthians 9:7-8)..
Peace Lutheran offers a secure Give by Text option. To donate via text, send the dollar amount you wish to give, including a dollar sign, to 888-314-2975. Example: $50. You will receive a secure registration link. Another secure option for giving is at our website.
Member Information Sheets
Peace Lutheran is working to update our records for each member of the congregation. Information sheets have been prepared and we ask the each person complete the sheet and return it to the church office.
