Announcements for January 20


WELS Marriage Enrichment and Get-Away Weekend! Marriage is a profound mystery. In Ephesians 5:32 Paul calls marriage literally, a “mega-mystery.” The word mystery seems to imply it can’t be solved, but there is an answer and it’s entirely possible to know it. It’s entirely possible for you to know, feel, and act on the secret to a great marriage. Spend the weekend of March 1-3 at Dimond Center Hotel in Anchorage growing closer to your Savior and your spouse . Grab a brochure or visit www.wels.net/marriage-enrichment for more details. Makes a wonderful Valentine's gift!

Tuesday Teen Night is an opportunity for the youth of our congregation to gather together for worship and fellowship. We invite anyone who is currently enrolled in Catechism class or has been confirmed to a special worship service at 6:00pm on Tuesdays. Youth from Faith, Faith Hmong and Iglesia Luterana and their friends are enjoying this gathering—we hope you can make it, too!

Join us for Toddler Time on Wednesdays at 10:00am! Toddler Time is an hour of multi-sensory play, stories, and snacks for children ages 0 to 5 years and their parents. Contact Cara Ewings at (907) 792-9388 for more information.

Miss Mittelstadt has received a divine Call to serve as Director at First Steps Early Learning Center in La Crescent, MN. This is an opportunity for her to deliberate where the Holy Spirit can best use her abilities, either here in Anchorage, or in La Crescent. Please keep her in your prayers and offer her your insights and encouragement directly.
