We gather this morning not for ourselves, but for God,
to give him the glory for all the good things he has done for us.
May his name be honored and praised through us today.
Welcome to worship!
This morning Pastor Michael will begin a series called, “From Tabernacle,
To Temple, To Jesus” which will explore how the tabernacle and its
furnishings of the ancient Israelites point us to Jesus. We will begin with
Exodus 25:10-22 and a look a the Ark of the Covenant. Next week, we will
discuss Exodus 25:23-40—The Table and the Lampstand.
Following the service this morning, during the Sunday School hour, there
will be a sermon discussion in the sanctuary. Everyone is welcome to attend.
The second offerings for the month of March will be received as follows:
March 12– Werner Missionary Ministry in Japan
March 19– Milaca Area Food Pantry
March 26– 125 Campaign
Lent At-Home Faith Formation Tip– Many Christians practice giving
something up for Lent in order to make space for God. If you have kids in
your household, think together about how you might make more space for
God this week. For example, you might take a technology break each day
and spend time reading about Jesus’ life and ministry in The Jesus
Storybook Bible or Growing in God’s Love: A Story Bible and talking about
the stories together. (Tip from Faith Formation; bit.ly/CRCFaithFormation)Our Church Family We rejoice with Ray & Mandi Hoffman in the birth of a healthy baby boy! Walker Ray was born on Tuesday, February 28th at 7lb, 12 oz. Everyone is home and doing well. Congratulations to the Hoffman family! Classis Lake Superior will meet on Monday and Tuesday this week at Calvary CRC in Edina, MN. Our church will be represented by Pastor Michael, Doug Brink, and Dale Stobb. Please keep them and all the delegates in your prayers. The Admin Team will meet this Thursday. Please pray for them and give thanks to God for their leadership. The GAP Team is getting their final plans in place for their trip. They will depart early on Monday, March 13, and return late on Saturday, March 18. Please keep them in your prayers as they prepare this week. Please keep the residents and staff of Country Meadows in your prayers as there are several COVID cases in the building at this time. Some of our own congregation members are being isolated in their rooms. Nursery volunteers (adults and students 5th grade and up) are needed!
