 Listen to the Scriptures: Nahum!

Meet up Tomorrow (Thursday) 11am to listen to the scriptures. 

Through the summer we will be reading through many of the Minor Prophets.  On Thursdays at 11:00 am we will listen to the minor prophet for that week.  If you are not able to join us, I encourage you to listen to it with your family.

Welcome, Baby Gunnrik!

Matthew, Annalee, and Baby Gunnrik will be honored at a small reception shower after service on Sunday, July 23.

If you're able to "shower" this sweet little one, born in May, we encourage you to write a blessing in a beloved children's book, either new or used (instead of a card). The family would also appreciate baby toiletries and boy clothes sizes 9 months and larger. Thanks for showing your support to our littlest Grace friend!

Family Meals 

Grace is collecting food for Summer Family Meals. 

Last Easter we were the number 1 donor church. Let's keep it up!

Just bring food to the church and put it in the bin. 

This year they are asking for desserts (boxed mixes).

GOD'S HUMILITY FOR YOU

By Martin Luther

 

"Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." -Philippians 2:5-11

 

Christ assumed the form of a servant, even while remaining God and having the form of God; he was God, and his divine words and works were spoken and wrought for our benefit. As a servant, he served us with these. He did not require us to serve him in compensation for them, as in the capacity of a Lord he had a just right to do. He sought not honor or profit thereby, but our benefit and salvation. It was a willing service and gratuitously performed, for the good of men. It was a service unspeakably great, because of the ineffable greatness of the minister and servant -- God eternal, whom all angels and creatures serve.
