Pastor Glen's focus for his message for

this upcoming weekend:

Life is confusing, and it's not always easy to know which way to go. Jesus says, "Follow me," but there are so many distractions, diversions and distorted notions of what that means. How do I choose? The answer is easy: you don't! Discipleship is living out a choice God has already made for us, an act of grace and love that we can only hope to embody in our own lives. The mantle of the Kingdom has been placed upon us. May we fulfill it's promise as best we can in all we say and do.

Summer Garden Market to Highlight First Lutheran Gardeners

First Lutheran Church gardeners will again be spotlighted this summer as the annual First Fruits and Garden Market will be held beginning on the weekend of June 28th and 29th.  Beginning on that date and continuing throughout the summer and into the fall, church gardeners will have the opportunity to contribute extra locally grown produce to the market. This will include vegetables, fruits and baked goods. This produce will then be made available to First Lutheran worshippers prior to and after the services on Saturday evening and Sunday mornings. Those members obtaining this produce are asked to provide a free-will donation. The funds will then go to the Lutheran World Relief. 

Gardeners are asked to bring their produce in on Friday during the day or on Saturday afternoon prior to the 5:00 p.m. service. Produce can also be brought in prior to the 8:15 and 10:15 service on Sunday. The donated items should be placed on a cart in the narthex of the church. Products should be clean and neatly arranged as they would be for a regular Farmers Market.  

Most gardeners often find themselves with extra produce. Why not bring those extra produce to the market at First Lutheran. By doing so, it will make the market a wonderful event throughout the summer.

ATTENTION FLC MEMBERS!!

FLC is now using a new database called Realm. This database is used to organize our membership records. This system also tracks all our financial giving, enables us to do scheduling, and Realm collects all kinds of information to help us be a better church.

The really unique thing about Realm is that YOU, the congregation, can update, edit, and control all of your own data in the system. You can change your address, add an email preference, tell us where you'd like to be more involved at FLC, see your giving information, and so much more.

If you would like to do this from home please email Vince at vkrysl@firstlutheranblair.org to request a login.

We hope to have all our FLC members update their profiles and begin interacting on Realm by the end of 2025.

Women's Bible Study

“The Minor Prophets, spanning from Hosea to Malachi, represent a tapestry of prophetic literature in the Old Testament. These twelve books, collectively known as the “Book of the Twelve” in the Hebrew Bible, are united by their brevity compared to the “Major Prophets” (Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel). They address the covenantal faithfulness of God and the repeated infidelity of His people. Each book offers unique insights into the character of God, His dealings with Israel, and His ultimate redemptive plan fulfilled in Christ.”

The Friday Morning Women’s Bible study are learning about the Minor Prophets. The guide for this study is “Journey with the Minor Prophets” by Mary Cooney. “Through observation, interpretation and application the goal is to engage your heart with the living Word of God. Not intended to provide you with all the answers, rather to help you discover for yourself a few of the riches that God has for us in His Word.”

Please join us in the church library on Friday mornings from 9:30-11:00 a.m. to learn more about the minor prophets and enjoy fellowship with one another. If you have any questions about this Bible study, contact Susie Pinquoch at spinquoch@gmail.com.
