WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 17, 2023


PSALM OF THE DAY: Psalm 103:1–12

Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name! Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits, who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, who satisfies you with good so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. The Lord works righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed. He made known his ways to Moses, his acts to the people of Israel. The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. He will not always chide, nor will he keep his anger forever. He does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay us according to our iniquities. For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him; as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us.

 

VERSE OF THE WEEK: September 17, 2023

1 Samuel 12:24

Thompson is an 8th grader at Belvoir Christian Academy. He (and his brother) has been a student at BCA since he was in PreK4! We don’t know all the details, but he has something strange going on that is affecting his blood marrow and other systems. He’s a really sick boy. Please consider donating blood and, of course, praying for God to work His miracle healing power and pray for Thompson and his family.

Join us in-person or online!

We understand that sometimes folks cannot worship with us in person due to illness or unforeseen circumstances.

Our homebound and isolated church members have been on our minds, including those who live alone or are unable to leave their homes. We offer a quarterly newsletter for our non-homebound members to learn about ways that you can reach out and minister to our homebound members. It is very much worth the time to read it!

Lutheran Hour Ministries began at the grassroots level as the Lutheran Laymen’s League, a group of 12 laypeople who came together to support the church in word and deed. What began with 12 has become a movement of tens of thousands of volunteers and supporters around the globe. In 1930, “There is a God” were the first words spoken on The Lutheran Hour® radio program broadcast over the airwaves to thousands of listeners.


Today LHM shares the Gospel message with people around the world more than 163 million times each week through ministry efforts such as Bible Correspondence Courses, Outreach Training, Bible Studies, Daily Devotions and, of course, The Lutheran Hour.
