CONGRATULATIONS TO MESSIAH MEMBER, BILL TAYLOR:
Bill, who is the CEO of Blue Valley Lutheran Homes in Hebron, NE, was recently named the Nebraska Health Care Association Administrator of the Year! He will be honoredwith an open house reception on Wednesday, October 14 from 2-4 p.m. Pastor Keith Brozek, corporate board president for BVLH, will make a presentation at 3:00. This open house will take place in the Nursing Home lobby at 220 Park Ave. (the hospital is on the same street, so follow the blue "H" signs and you'll find us, too!).
If it suits you better, we are having "mini-receptions" at the brand new assisted living facility at 10:00 a.m. and at 12:30 at our Care Home, which serves the developmentally disabled and those who need memory support.

Gospel lesson for Sunday, October 18. As you read this text what words or phrases speak to you?
Mark 10:35-45
35James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came forward to him and said to him, “Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask of you.” 36And he said to them, “What is it you want me to do for you?” 37And they said to him, “Grant us to sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your glory.” 38But Jesus said to them, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, or be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?” 39They replied, “We are able.” Then Jesus said to them, “The cup that I drink you will drink; and with the baptism with which I am baptized, you will be baptized; 40but to sit at my right hand or at my left is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared.”
41When the ten heard this, they began to be angry with James and John. 42So Jesus called them and said to them, “You know that among the Gentiles those whom they recognize as their rulers lord it over them, and their great ones are tyrants over them. 43But it is not so among you; but whoever wishes to become great among you must be your servant, 44and whoever wishes to be first among you must be slave of all. 45For the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many.”
