(Check out the poster in the narthex for more details.) Please make checks payable to 1st Lutheran Church - Screen Update. Get your square(s) before they are gone! Moving Forward
The advice "You are either moving forward or you are moving backward" is highly relevant for us at 1st Lutheran today. In the upcoming weeks, our leadership will be meeting with Western ND synod leaders to discuss the future steps for our collaborative efforts here in central North Dakota. However, before we proceed... We will be dedicating time to express our gratitude and bid farewell to Pastor Katie (and Brandon) for her dedicated ministry with us over the past three years. The formal event will take place on Wednesday, May 7 from 4-7 pm at the church, where we will host an open house to acknowledge and appreciate Pastor Katie and Brandon's contributions. I also encourage everyone to personally reach out to Pastor Katie to share your thanks and memories of her time with us. As pastors serve individual congregations and the wider church, it is important that we share experiences with Pastor Katie that will benefit her in her next call and enrich the broader church. As we transition into a period of 'calling,' please continue the excellent ministry we provide to our members and community. Your active participation in our church is greatly valued. Remember, the church is not merely a building but rather a collective of people working together to disseminate the good news to our community and beyond. During this 'calling' period, we aim to maintain strong connections with our members. To support this effort, I propose forming a 'visitation team.' If you are interested in participating, please contact me or the church office. Details regarding an organizational meeting to brainstorm ideas and strategies will be shared soon. Let us move forward together. Godspeed Ted |
