I know my Redeemer lives | Presiding Bishop Elizabeth Eaton | Easter 2022
As we enter the third year of this pandemic, we see the signs of stress and incivility, even the signs of war and disease in Ethiopia and Sudan, in Europe. It might seem like death still has sway, but Presiding Bishop Elizabeth Eaton reminds us to declare confidently on this Easter and all times "I know that my Redeemer lives.”

Women’s Zoom Monthly Bible Study Update
“The Kingdom of God: Looking into the Future”
All Women are invited to join our “Gather” Magazine Bible Study “The kingdom of God: Looking into the Future” Wednesday, April 13th, at 1:00. This month we will be exploring the kingdom we all look forward to someday. This is the last study in a series by Mark Allan Powell, ELCA Bible scholar. Last month we considered what a blessing it is to live in God’s kingdom here on earth.
This monthly Bible study meets the second Wednesday of the month. It is published in the Women of the ELCA’s publication, “Gather Magazine.” But you don’t need the magazine, just come and join in. If you want a peak at some of what we will talk about, you can read Matthew 22:23-30. This month we are still meeting on Zoom. In May we plan to meet in person in the Bethlehem room at the church

Free Meal Update
The last free meal of corned beef, cabbage, red potatoes, and carrots was a big hit. The diners came in very sporadically but at the end of the day, we served 22 diners and sent 18 meals home. At the very end when we were taking the sign down and closing up, one last car full of people came by and took all the leftovers. So all the food went to good use. The next free meal will be on Saturday, April 30th from 12:00 – 1:30 PM. Those that want to help cook can show up at 10:00 AM and those who wish to serve and clean up can show up at 11:30 AM. Thanks to all who help with this endeavor. We couldn’t do this without your help.

Speaker Announced for Adult Education.
Hi All -
He is a very well-spoken older man who wrote this book to share his experience. He lost his sweetheart in June, 2018. This is the write-up from Amazon:
Diary of a Caregiver: The Dementia Journey Hardcover – February 28, 2018
In 2009, my wife of over fifty-eight years was diagnosed with dementia with Alzheimers symptoms. My caregiving responsibilities began before that time and continued until her death in January 2018. She was provided care in her own home. As time went by, the caregiver duties became more and more demanding. It was truly twenty-four hours each day and seven days each week. My sweetheart was referred to the hospice program as a patient beginning in 2013 with a life expectancy of six months or less. At the time of her passing, she had been a hospice patient for four years, eleven months, and five days. The Diary of a Caregiver begins with her entry into the hospice program and continues until her death. Caregiving can be very frustrating at times as one never knows what to expect or when to expect it. The Diary of a Caregiver identifies many of the problems and frustrations associated with care of a dementia patient. It also identifies different techniques and solutions to some of those problems. It should be of interest to anyone who is involved in caregiving, especially those who are just beginning.
Rex Young will discuss his book on Sunday, April 24th after early service at 9:45 in the Forum. Please join us for stories and discussion on a topic that is close to and experienced by many people.
