CELEBRATE THE GIFT OF LIFE WE SHARE
“From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, the Lord’s
name is to be praised.” Psalm 113:3
Dear Friends,
Permit me to welcome you to the WEB site of Resurrection and to bring you
news of a priceless gift! This gift will not grow old and cannot be destroyed.
No one can take it from you. It is the gift of God’s Son, Jesus Christ,
through whom we have the power to triumph over the problems and complexities
of life. That is the wondrous news of Christmas peace and Easter joy.
At Resurrection, we have discovered the great truth of a positive message
for times like these God's gift of Love and life for all.
I invite you to worship with us any Sunday morning to discover the marvelous
miracle of faith in the present and hope for the future. We are just ordinary
people sharing an extraordinary message in a positive and practical way
to those around us. I trust you will feel a warm welcome and an atmosphere
of love here at Resurrection.
Whoever you are…
Wherever you are in your journey of faith…&
You are welcome here.
Sincerely,
Reverend Lon R. Haack, pastor
Lutheran Church of the Resurrection
