Twenty second Sunday After Pentecost
Sunday October 21, 2018

WELCOME
  Today is Thankoffering Sunday!
Women of the ELCA (WELCA) Thankofferings support the outreach programs and ministry efforts of women in our churches. Thank God for WELCA and all it has and continues to do here and elsewhere to the glory of God!
First Reading-Exodus 17:1-7
Second Reading-Titus 3:4-7
Gospel -John 4:27-30
The lessons this week all deal with water as a sign of the Lord's presence and power among us. The response of the Samaritan woman following her conversation with Jesus is evidence of the power of God in her life. Water remains for us a sign of God's active presence among us to enable the mission and ministry that comes with being his followers. 
 
 May God bless our worship.

Saturday Worship Theme
 A worship series entitled “Jesus, Teacher of Faith” continues with this week’s 5:00 p.m. Saturday Contemporary Praise Worship Service.  The series focuses on the many ways Jesus taught his followers to live faithfully, ever trusting in God.  Pastor Rich Ajer provides the sermon.
