Bible Boulders:

eight fascinating biblical people whose stories help build our understanding of the Bible.. We'll discover where they fit into the Bible's BIG story, what made them tick, what they got right, what they got spectacularly wrong, and what their experiences of God can teach us and affect our faith.

Can't remember whether Abraham came before Moses?

Can't find Habakkuk without the Table of Contents?

Perfect. You'll fit right in.

No tests. No homework. No Bible expertise necessary. No previous Bible Nuggets required either. We'll review nuggets as we go.

Just bring your questions and curiosity!

A Celebration of God's Inclusive Love!

Saturday, November 7, 2026 | 2:00–4:00 p.m.

Join us for a joyful afternoon as Faith Lutheran Church celebrates becoming part of the Reconciling in Christ (RIC) network of Reconciling Works! This important milestone affirms our commitment to being a congregation where all people are welcomed, valued, and embraced in God's love.

Our celebration will begin with a brief worship service giving glory to God for the gift of God's boundless love and grace, and for the calling we share to extend Christ's welcome to all people.

We are delighted that Pastor Wilco, former Associate to the Bishop, and Mark Lingel from the Bishop's office will join us for this special occasion. Bishop Pipho will also provide a special video message.

Following worship, we'll enjoy fellowship and light refreshments, including finger sandwiches, fruit, cookies, and other treats. Congregational contributions of food would be greatly appreciated! A sign-up sheet will be available on Sunday for those willing to bring something and for everyone planning to attend. This will help us prepare for our celebration.

Come celebrate this exciting chapter in Faith's life as we continue growing together in God's grace and sharing Christ's love and compassion with all the world!

All are welcome. All are valued. All are loved.

Let Us Pray. . October 2026

Please contact the office to update your listing at the end of each month.

Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

As God calls us to pray for one another, there is solace in community. The more we understand what we’re going through, the more we can comfort one another and share experiences. Pastor Chris encourages mutual prayer and care but without being intrusive. She would also like those making additions and deletions to the list to have the loved one’s permission to do so.
