"...the bread of God ... comes down from heaven
and gives life to the world."
- Jesus, John 6:33

This month we are going to look a little closer at Holy Communion by answering Luther's catechetical questions:
1. What is the Sacrament of the Altar?
2. Where is this written?
3. What is the benefit of such eating and drinking?
4. Who, then, receives such Sacrament worthily?

On Sunday, we will look especially at question 2 and the grace of God's desire to speak with us. Join us every weekend in August to (re)discover what great things God has done and does for us in His body and blood!

We are still looking for volunteers in a number of areas. Scroll to the bottom for the list and let pastor Dean or Sherry know how God is calling you this Fall.
