Upcoming Worship Series
The Savior Comes with Power

A one-of-a-kind star guided the Magi from their far-away home to worship Jesus. Jesus is the one-of-a-kind Savior who shines on us with the brilliance of his love. We use a word from the language of the New Testament to describe this phenomenon: EPIPHANY. On the Day of the Epiphany, January 6, and on the Sundays after the Epiphany, the Bible shows us Jesus revealing himself as our Savior.

The season of Advent focuses our attention on the coming of Jesus. At the first Christmas, Jesus came into the world to save us. Jesus comes to us now in his Word and sacraments. Jesus will come again at the end of the time to take us to heaven forever. The worship themes of Advent encourage us so that we may be blessed whenever Jesus comes into our lives.

November 27 —The First Sunday in Advent
Jesus is coming! Prepare!

Over 90 people joined us for an inspiring worship service that focused families around the theme “Going God’s Way!” You may view Pastor Zahn’s message (here) based on Matthew 16:21-26. Following the worship service, families enjoyed a buffet of soups, chili, pasta, cupcakes, and pie. After stomachs were stuffed with food, it was time to work off the calories with activities for all ages. Everyone who attended had a wonderful time.

Special thanks to all who helped make the event such a success. You may view photos from the day below…

Worship at Amazing Grace Lutheran Church
October 30–November 20, 2011

As the daylight shortens and dying leaves fall from the trees, we remember that life on earth will not last forever. The annual cycle of Sundays and festivals is coming to an end, and we enter the Season of End Time. The words and works of Jesus recorded in the Sunday Gospels encourage us to be watchful and ready for his return.

October 30 - Reformation
Lord, Keep Us Faithful to the Word!

October 31st is a critical date, especially in retail. The National Retail Federation reported that the average American spent roughly $70 on costumes, candy and decorations. Multiply that times millions of Americans and Halloween suddenly is a multi-billion dollar event for retailers. Polls indicate that about 80 percent of Americans participate in trick-or-treat activities. These figures speak volumes about the significance of Halloween in America.
