REDEEMER EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN CHURCH

KURTH FUNDRAISER: This morning a benefit will be held for Lucas Kurth to help with his recent medical bills. A Brunch will be served after church until 11:30. A silent auction will also be held. Please have breakfast with us and help Lucas in this time of need. Thrivent will match 50% on the first $5,000.
IAAJ! In May, “It’s All About Jesus” is a Bible presentation designed for all our members. IAAJ presenters have prepared themselves to host cottage meetings with our members to share the topic “Saul into Paul—What Would Be Different in Our Congregation If That Same Kind of Change Took Place Here?” The presenters are Jim Clemens, Jay Hunger, Andrea Stelter, Jeff Kneser, Jim Becker, Jon Griesbach, Dale & Karen Gehring and Peter Paul. Very soon, one of them will call you with an invitation to meet with them. Be ready to say “Yes!” when they contact you!
SIGN-UP! The sign-up sheets for this year’s Vacation Bible School are on the table under the mailboxes. All ages are needed. Every skill can be used!
THANK YOU! Thanks to all who purchased flowers from the Pioneers. All profits were donated to the Kurth Fundraiser.
