Sharing The Gospel with Those in Your Care

Please join the evangelism board for a 5-week bible study called “Witnessing – A Joyful Lutheran Perspective” on Sunday mornings at 8:15 AM in the cafeteria. The first class is on April 19. Jesus wants us join Him in the joy and celebration of His work in finding and bringing the lost sheep to Him.  We love and care for those people in our lives as we daily fulfil our vocations of family, church, community, and work. At times we…

In the Breaking of the Bread

Dear Faith Families, In our very busy world, it can be hard to maintain focus. We are pulled in so many different directions with the expectations of work, family, school, and society. The busyness and noise of this world is exhausting. In the Gospel reading for the Third Sunday of Easter, our Risen Lord encounters two disciples who were exhausted by the circumstances they had endured. While they did not have to face the chaotic whims of the modern world,…

State of the Parish

3/20/2026 Dear Faith Families, Yesterday (3/19) the church (quietly) celebrated the Feast of St. Joseph, Guardian of our Lord. On the Feast Day, we remember and commemorate the faithfulness of Jesus’ adoptive, earthly father, who did his duty to Mary and the child entrusted to his care, leading his household according to the call of God. The Feast of St. Joseph reminds us to honor our fathers and our mothers; and it reminds us to faithfully discharge our own duties…

Dear Faith, Let me state the obvious: Faith Lutheran Church and School has had some big struggles over the last few years. And these struggles have led to some frank conversations and difficult decisions about our ministry and mission. But as we have these important conversations about what we can and cannot do, it is most important to ask why we do what we do at all. The work of the church is not a practical matter. The church does…

What is Worship?

Dear Faith Lutheran Church and School, Not long ago, I joined our Wednesday night men’s Bible Study on the Augsburg Confession and an important topic came up. I’ll summarize the topic with this question: What is worship? As with many things, the answer to this defining question will then determine what and how we practice. Many Christians today think that worship is what we do. The idea is that we worship God by offering our prayers, our praise, our thanksgiving,…

The Word of the Lord Endures Forever

Dear Faith Lutheran Church and School, The Lutheran Church is a Church forged in the Protestant Reformation. Any discussion of the Reformation is not only an opportunity for a history lesson, but also a great opportunity to refocus our attention on the “eternal Gospel” proclaimed by the church and the angels (Revelation 14:6). In the middle of a world that is in constant flux, forever changing due to the whims of leaders and influencers, God’s Word is eternal and unchanging.…
