THANK YOU Thank you everyone who helped make the living tomb a great example of our true faith in Jesus’ death and resurrection. May we all continue spreading God’s Word to the community and beyond. The Evangelism Committee

GOOD NEWS LUTHERAN After months of prayer, and on the third try, we have a pastor for Good News Lutheran Church. Pastor Jon Bauer has accepted the call to serve in Mount Horeb! Pastor Bauer will tentatively arrive around July 1st to begin serving our congregation and community. He currently serves at Emmanuel in Tempe, Arizona. Please keep the congregation at Emmanuel in your prayers as they begin the calling process for a new pastor. Pastor Bauer comes highly recommended from several sources and has impressed people with his gifts for outreach. Pray that his work will be blessed and more people will hear the good news and be brought to faith in Jesus. Our current membership at Good News is just over forty and worship attendance averages about the same number. On a typical Sunday, about half of the congregation are children. We also have five to ten prospects in worship on average each Sunday. We thank Bob and Sharon Garbe, volunteers from Kingdom Workers, who have helped us canvass. They came to Mount Horeb on April 10-11 to assist with following up on prospects and handed out several copies of the DVD, "Come, Follow Me." Please contact Pastor Strutz by phone at 608-5154334 or you may email him at pastorstrutz@rlcverona.com with any questions about our mission work in the Mount Horeb area. We thank you for your prayers and support as we continue to spread the good news of Jesus in Mount Horeb!
