May 16 Worship Recording

This Sunday is high school graduation recognition Sunday. Hopefully, the rain will hold off and we can gather outdoors. If we are unable to gather outdoors, worship will be moved indoors. Seating capacity has been increased to 30. To allow seniors and their families along with our worship assistants to attend indoors, unfortunately we will not have space for others this Sunday. If you would like to sit in the Great Hall and view the worship streamed live, you are invited to do that. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding.

Worship Bulletin

This Sunday’s worship is being provided by Bishop Amy Current and her staff of the Southeastern Iowa Synod. Additional leaders and musicians from our synod are assisting. It will premier on our Facebook page at 9:30 AM. A link will also be posted on our website later in the week. Below is the bulletin.

What a wonderful morning it was! There are 2 links below. First is a hymn produced by the Association of Lutheran Church Musicians (permission granted to share and stream) that we began worship with. The second link is for the actual worship service.

Jesus Christ is Risen Today Hymn

Easter Worship Outdoor Worship

Happy Easter! It looks to be an absolutely beautiful morning to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord outdoors. Here’s what you need to know: 9:30 AM (of course will stream live here on Facebook for the faithful people viewing online), bring a chair, wear a mask, create distance between others outside immediate family, sing softly. A reminder for those viewing online. A video of the hymn “Jesus Christ is Risen Today” will premier at 9:30 AM. It is around 4 1/2 minutes long. After that, we will go live outdoors so there will be a momentary pause but stay with us. You may need to refresh your screens. Click here for the bulletin.
