We are not fully able to describe God. We begin with the Holy Trinity – remembering that God is bigger than us! God is fully divine, fully human, and fully spirit – that means fully mysterious and so much more than we can wrap our brains around. In this ordinary time, we are reminded through the everyday stories of the Bible of God’s "bigger" mercy, mission, compassion, freedom, and expectation. May this series bless your summer in big and small ways. | |

Summer is here, which means donuts, lemonade, golf carts, and OUTDOOR WORSHIP! Grab your lawn chairs, friends, and family, and come join the fun.
In the case of inclement weather, worship will be moved indoors. Sign up to receive weather-related text messages by texting “weather” to 320.400.7321.
Friendly reminder: Our outdoor worship services are not live-streamed, so please join us in person or watch the 8:30am service online at any time.

| | First Lutheran is a proud sponsor of the annual Day of Caring, facilitated by United Way and Discovery Middle School. On Wednesday, May 20th, these awesome 8th graders helped spread mulch on our landscaping, fill sandbags for outdoor worship, and haul patio furniture. THANK YOU! | | | |
Seeking a Mower / Garden Tractor Donation
The mower we've been using to maintain the “back 40” parking area near our outdoor worship space has recently stopped working and is beyond repair. We are currently looking for a replacement mower with a 54" deck that would be suitable for mowing this uneven grassy area. (Smaller sizes would be considered, if needed.)
If you have a mower in good working condition that you would be willing to donate, please contact Bruce Belseth at 507-227-1038 or belsethse@hotmail.com.
Thank you for considering supporting this need!
