Announcements for February 3


Beginning Monday, February 4th at 6:00pm our pastors will be 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.  This course covers the basic truths of the Christian faith and is offered to newcomers and long-time Christians alike. There is a brochure in your pew that you can hand out to invite your family, friends, co-workers and neighbors. Please take one with you!  Contact Pastor Chris at 792-9788 or Pastor Nate at 817-428-2356 for more info.

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. 

It’s time for our annual “Mission of Love” fundraiser for the Central Africa Medical Mission!  This year it will be on Sunday, February 10th.  Plan on joining us for breakfast prior to Bible study and Sunday school.  Baked goods and hand-crafted items will be available before and after worship.  For more information contact Joy Bromaghin at 440-1702.

Men’s Bible Study will meet at 9:00am on Saturday, February 9th at Barbie’s CafĂ© (6728 Lake Otis Pkwy). By popular demand, we’re taking a tour of the Minor Prophets with a Bible study we’ve called “Sound bytes of the Old Testament.” We will be discussing the Book of Amos chapter 4.  All are welcome and invited! 

Faith Alive Bible Study Groups meet this week! These Bible study groups are designed to promote vibrant life in Christ, all from the comfort of your own home! The Brooks and Wockenfuss families are our hosts for the first series of studies called “Gifted” based on 1 Corinthians 12 to 15.
Faith Alive at Brooks: Wednesday at 6:30pm
Faith Alive at Wockenfusses: Wednesday at 7:00pm

WELS Marriage Enrichment and Get-Away Weekend! 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. 

Who’s ready for spring break? A group of high schoolers from MLHS is! Michigan Lutheran High School is sending up a team of 6-8 students over spring break to help us reach out to our community for Easter. They will be arriving at the end of March and staying through the first week of April.  If you are able to help with hosting, please contact us at office@faithalaska.com.

Who’s thinking about summer? This summer we will have plenty of opportunities for the children of our congregation and our community. We have four week-long camps:
June 17-21 STEM Camp
June 24-28 Soccer Camp                
July 8-12 Outdoor Adventure Camp
July 14-18 Camp Luther
We have four different groups of helpers coming up from the Lower 48 for these camps. If you are able to provide housing for a few of these individuals during one or more of these events, please contact Pastor Chris at (907) 792-9788.
