What makes a church beautiful?

"...to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple" (Psalm 27:4).  King David wanted more than all else to be able to seek the LORD in his temple and see his glory. 

The real beauty of Faith Lutheran Church is the glory of the LORD, revealed and proclaimed in Word and Sacrament week after week.  However, we also want our church to look good, right?  We want it to be as beautiful as we can make it, because that honors our Savior God and shows how much we love him.  How the church building and property look makes a statement to all who look at it! 

You're invited to come next Tuesday evening, July 15, have supper with your Christian friends and then get to work with some fix-up, clean-up, make-the-property-attractive projects.

Plan to start at 6:00 PM.  Bring a dish to pass if you can, and then lend a hand or bend your back.  Property chairman John Fahlin will be on hand to direct and assist you in getting as much of the following done as possible:


For the guys, mainly but not exclusively:
Install railroad tie timbers (5-6)
Restore proper grade to curb
Install flower pot
Install and wire concrete pier
Fill flower pot with dirt
Install remaining LED exterior spotlights
Winterize parsonage
Touch up paint around installed LED lights
Reposition wood barrel flower pots
Put filler blocks in for school and ramp entrances

For the women,
mainly but not exclusively:
A deep clean inside the kitchen, bathrooms, fellowship hall, etc.
