Mid-Week Lenten Services
Our mid-week Lenten theme is You Shall Love the Lord Your
God and will begin Feb. 29
with worship services at 12:15 pm and 7:30 pm. We will start with
the covenant that God
made with humanity and then focus on loving God with all our heart,
soul, mind and strength.
Each week in Lent, we will collect
items to form LWR Personal Care Kits that help impoverished people
stay healthy in life's most
challenging situations. Check the bulletin each week for
the collection schedule.
Questions? Contact Mindy.

TEACH US TO PRAY
Please make note of the Prayer Ventures for February.
You can find them at http://www.elca.org/What-We-Believe/Prayer-Center/Prayer-Ventures-2.aspx
This resource is produced by the ELCA Mission Advancement unit and can
be a really useful tool in your daily prayers.
These prayers help to broaden our scope beyond our local concerns to
the global, social and outreach ministries of our church.

WINTER
WEATHER
The winter months are upon us once again where snow storms can
disrupt our daily activities. If a winter storm affects us during the
school week, we traditionally
cancel all church activities if school is canceled. There have been
times where the weather cleared by the time evening came and we could
very easily have had
our activities, but we prevent a lot of confusion if we stick to the
rule. So if school is canceled because of winter weather, then
Immanuel’s activities will also be
canceled. There have also been times where school went all day, but we
had to cancel because the weather was getting worse. Please check on ksallink.com for
school closings or you may call the office or pastor.
In regards to worship service being canceled, that is more on an
individual basis based on what the weather is doing and is projected to
do. If we have to cancel
worship due to weather, we will contact ksallink.com
along with the local radio stations. Again, you are also welcome to call
pastor. If you feel that the weather
is too bad for you to get out, please stay home and this is also in
regards to confirmation because we do have some who have to come in
from the country.
We make our decisions based on what is happening in town and on
information from Henry, but we don’t always know what is happening
elsewhere in our
county. So please use your own judgment when traveling in the winter
weather!
