The Charting the Future gatherings are a process our Council is inviting the congregation to participate in to determine our “congregational DNA” and plan for the future. The next of these gatherings, “What is Expected of Our Members?” will be Sunday, May 31 following worship.
We will be rearranging the Centrum to face north on Sunday, May 31 after the Charting the Future gathering, starting at 11:30am. Many hands make light work, so please come help us move chairs and reposition the chancel platforms. Lunch will be served.
Help fund necessary repairs to our roof and electrical system by contributing to our newly launched capital campaign! Our goal is to raise $50,000 by the end of 2026. To support this effort, please simply write “Capital Campaign” in the memo line of your check or designate it accordingly when you give. Thank you for helping to keep Our Savior’s safe and dry!
