August 3, 2025
Flowers on the altar for Sunday, August 3, are given to God’s glory by Bill & Suzanne Bohning.
People We Are Praying For (We included prayers for these individuals in our recent church services): Owen Saidler as he recovers from heart transplant surgery, John Sehloff, Jim Tessien, Larry Rude, Pastor Mike Barlow, Katie Tweit, Lorena Merseth, Jeanette Koberg, Larry Fredericks, Kelsey Espeland, Marsha Natvig, and Megan Wehrwein’s mother as they deal with infirmities. We also prayed for our youth as they travel back from LYA and for Cyril and Sami Palm as they were united in holy marriage on July 26.
Office hours on Wednesday, August 6, and Thursday, August 7, will be 9pm to 12pm, as staff will be attending school safety training.
