Pastor's Message

Dear Saints, 


As we enter the Summer months, there are vacations, family gatherings, and other activities that draw many in different directions. Yet, in every season, the Lord remains faithful in calling us to gather around His Word and Sacraments. We as the Church just celebrated Pentecost, the day in which the promised Holy Spirit was poured out on those gathered, as He is now also poured out on us today, gathering us together, enlightening us with His Word, and sanctifying us through the Means of Grace in which our sins are forgiven.

Summer brings with it changes in routine, but do not let it become a season away from God’s house. Continue to gather with your fellow brothers and sisters in the Divine Service. If you’re traveling and will be away from here on a Sunday, find the closest LCMS church and attend Divine Service there. If you need help finding one, just ask me, and I’ll be happy to help.

Have a blessed June as we give thanks to God for the blessings that He has given to this church!


Soli Deo Gloria,

Pastor

June 2026
