Worship – Second Sunday of Easter

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.

We have 3 opportunities to worship over the next 4 days. All 3 worship services will be streamed via Facebook. Maundy Thursday (tonight) and Good Friday (tomorrow) will be at 7 PM. Those who have indicated they wish to worship in person and have been contacted by Jill are welcome to attend. As of now, we will plan to worship outdoors on Easter Sunday at 9:30 AM. Please bring a chair. Face masks are required as is maintaining physical distancing from others. The Great Hall will be open should you not wish to sit outside and instead view it streamed through a television. There is room for 20-25 people in the Great Hall.

Here are the bulletins for each worship service:
