Voter’s Meeting will be on Sunday, January 29, immediately after the worship service. We will be voting on the 2017 Budget, 2016 Mission funding, and an amendment to the Synod’s constitution. Information will be emailed ahead of time for your review.

Support for Missions: Check out the bulletin board for the latest letter from LCMS Missionaries Shauen and Krista Trump. The congregation has financially supported them in the past and will be voting on directing some of our 2016 Mission funds to them.

Choir Rehearsal for this year will begin on Wednesday, January 18 at 7:00pm. If you would like to use your God given musical talents to praise God, please join us at this time. If you have any questions, please speak with Xavier Richert.

Change the World: One Life at a Time – 500th Reformation Anniversary Celebration: On Sunday, November 5, 2017, Dorton Arena on the NC State Fairgrounds will be filled with songs of praise to our Lord. Following a moving time of worship with thousands of voices, we will move to serve our neighbors. A health and dental clinic is planned for the afternoon and early evening as well as a Kids Zone, an art show, and choral concert. The most important way you can help right now is to prayer for the event. Talk with Judy Neely if you would like to part of the prayer team. Watch for more information in the near future for other ways you can help.
