Today is Orange Shirt Day. Today we are called to confess and lament the tragedies of Indian Boarding Schools, especially the abuse and death of hundreds of thousands of Native children.
Between services this week we will be celebrating Sandra. We are thankful for her 23 wonderful years of service.
Join us on Sunday to celebrate Sandra!
O God, it is your will to hold both heaven and earth in a single peace. 🕊️ Let the design of your great love shine on the waste of our wraths and sorrows, and give peace to your church, peace among nations, peace in our homes, and peace in our hearts. Amen. (ELW, p.76) 🌏
Lord, let my heart be good soil, open to the seed of your word. Lord, let my heart be good soil, where love can grow and peace is understood (ELW 512).

#WednesdayInspiration: For many, taking time to rest—whether it’s an extended retreat or simply a pause in a busy workday—can be a challenge. But rest can be seen as a spiritual discipline--a calling to receive and trust the love of God. https://t.co/xwWlc6QWv6
