Hello friends of Peace,

How many friends do you have? Many people have many fewer friends than years ago. But hopefully our friends are better.

Most of us like friends, enjoy friends, and want friends. Do we know how to make and keep friends? That’s the challenge!

We’ve heard so much about great relationships these last months. Most importantly that relationships are essential to well - being and happiness. https://youtu.be/ulJBL_Ek3wI

This week we’re going to wrap up with friendships - one of our favorite relationships. We hear about Jesus the friend of sinners. Can’t wait to see you!

We’ll be outdoors at 9:30.

P.S. We’re working on the budget and ministry plan for 2024. If you have any thoughts or suggestions, let us know please!

Pastor call

Pastor has received a divine call to serve at St Paul’s Lutheran Church, North Mankato https://www.stpaulsnorthmankato.com/. St Paul’s has been without a pastor for almost 4 years now. St Paul’s is a vital congregation in the Mankato area. They have an early learning center with about 100 kids. They are part of a local elementary school association. Students can go on to Minnesota Valley Lutheran High School. They support the high school and connect with both Martin Luther College and Bethany Lutheran College. They have a strong music ministry and take care of the college ministry in Mankato.

We’ll spend the next few weeks considering our ministry at Peace and St Paul’s. Please pray with us and for us so that God gives us confidence in our conviction.

I appreciate this call at this time. Churches everywhere need to help people tell the gospel in their own homes, workplaces, and communities. I love to be part of churches excited to do God’s work. I imagine you do too.

Let’s see what God is going to do next!

Feel free to reach out with any wisdom and encouragement you might have. Pastor T

Prayer chain

She has finished her service. Pastor is going to take care of the prayer chain for a while. If you’d like to join our prayer chain or have a prayer request, please reach out to the office at 269-694-6104.

Let’s keep praying! God wants to hear the prayers of his people.
