Congregational Meeting - May 8th
Thank you to all who participated in the WELS school assessment. The input we have received is very helpful and gives a good roadmap for improving our school. We can now take these recommendations and make a plan for the school’s future. The first step in that plan is making a decision on the principal position and calling a kindergarten teacher.
On May 8th at 4:00pm we will hold a congregational meeting to discuss the calls and answer any questions regarding the assessment. Time is of the essence as the deadline for calling a graduate is upon us. Please join us in making these important decisions.

Good Stewardship
As summer is quickly approaching and we all begin enjoying the great state of Alaska, remember the ministry of the church does not take a vacation. One way to consistently support our church is through electronic giving to automate your weekly offering. Electronic giving is a convenient way to keep up with your intended offerings when you are traveling or other circumstances prevent you from attending the services. To sign up contact Sheila Lillo in the office at 563-3499 or FaithLutheran@gci.net.
