Announcements for March 24


Continuing on Monday, March 25 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. Come on Monday night and hear how Holy Communion changes your life!

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. If you would like more information about this event, please contact Cara Ewings at (907) 792-9388.

Come find grace, peace and truth at Faith this Wednesday. During the season of Lent we will have special midweek worship services on Wednesdays for the next three weeks until April 10.  We will have one service beginning at 3:00 and an identical service at 6:30.  There will be a soup supper beginning at 6:00. The theme for the 2019 Lenten services is “Three Words of Truth.” Each service focuses on a three-word phrase from the record of Jesus’ life, death and resurrection.

Do you have questions about our plans for Faith Lutheran School? Come this Thursday, March 28 at 6:30pm for an open forum to discuss the future of our school. All are welcome and invited to participate. 

Thank you to all who volunteered to host students from MLHS! Michigan Lutheran High School is sending up a team of 8 students and chaperones during their spring break. They arrive on March 30 and leave April 6. Would you be able to help with a meal? If you’re able to help in this way, please sign up on the sheet in the fellowship hall.

Faith Lutheran Church and School is sponsoring a Health Fair Saturday, April 6, from 8:00am-12:00pm to bring free health education, health screenings and affordable blood tests to our community. Alaska Health Fair Inc. will provide most of the materials, supplies, medical volunteers, and core support but we need volunteers to help set up and take down, and donate food. Set up will be Friday, April 5, at 4:00. A Sign up sheet is in the Fellowship Hall or you can contact Gabby at gyb279@yahoo.com or 907-223-8449.

Men’s Bible Study will meet at 9:00am on Saturday April 6 at Village Inn on Spenard (4403 Spenard Rd, Anchorage, AK 99517). At this Bible study, we will be taking a look at the Small Catechism and see how its timeless truths still touch our lives as men of the Word. All are welcome and invited to join us. If you need a Catechism, please contact Bill Rieth.

The snow is melting, the days are getting longer and spring training is in full swing. That means one thing for sure—Alaska softball season is upon us! If you are interested in joining a coed softball team, we’d love to have you. Play begins the first week of May (weather dependent) and will be on Monday, Wednesday or Friday evenings at 6:30p, 7:35p or 8:40p and will be determined once registration ends. The season is 14 games and the cost to play is $77 + jersey per person. If there is interest in a youth team as well, we can accommodate. Please contact Jeremiah Zajic @ 907.841.4480 for more information.

The church entry area, including the sanctuary lobby entry area, is in need of repairs to the drywall.  We are requesting anyone interested in tackling and performing this work (patch, texture, and paint the drywall and associated cracks) to please contact Mike Klebs mikeklebs@gmail.com or 907-365-2528.  A 3rd party will provide scaffolding where needed.
