Ladies - Remember to register for the Women’s Retreat.  The topic for this year is Freedom in Christ.  Freedom is a blessing that we often take for granted!  Freedom is the real gift that Jesus is to us - freedom from sin, freedom from death!  Freedom to worship him in peace forever. Join the WELS Women of Alaska for a refreshing retreat on the shores of Lake Hood October 7th and 8th.

Adult Bible Study -
Does the Old Testament ever seem like an abandoned mine or a bottomless cavern?  Does it seem like a dark and dank cave that has long been forgotten?  Did you know that every time you open up your Bible to these sacred pages you’re walking through a gem-studded mine?  In our Bible studies on Sunday mornings at 9:00, we will be surveying the depths of Scripture as we get glimpses of the treasures in the Old Testament. All are welcome and invited. 

Making Life Better - 
Do you want to make your life better?  God does!  On Tuesdays at 6:30pm, Pastor Chris is offering a class entitled “Making Life Better.”  In this class, you will see how God has made your life better by reviewing your past, changing your present and transforming your future.  If you are interested in this class, talk with Pastor Chris.

Women's Bible Study -
Have you ever thought about what you want in a friend?  The innate yearning for relationship is not an accident.  God designed us for relationship – with Him and with those He places in our lives.  Our next study will help us see Jesus is our best Friend.  We will discover the many ways He shares our burdens, forgives our wrongdoing, and redeems us forever. So ladies, grab a cup of coffee, a Bible, a pen and sit down with us on September 24th at 10:00am to begin the study Coffee with the Savior.  We are excited to see you then!
