Pastor on vacation

Back by popular demand

Returning, by popular demand, is the signup sheet for purchasing the New Testament and Psalms edition of the Evangelical Heritage Version of the Bible. Find the signup sheet in our church fellowship area.

A Return to Grace

St. Luke's, Vassar is hosting a one-time showing of the new Luther movie, A Return to Grace, on Sunday, October 15th at 1:30 pm at the Vassar theater. This new film follows the great adventure of Luther’s life, packed with political intrigue, kidnappings, secret hideouts, and life-or-death showdowns.  At the same time, it's a story about the most important questions of life. Who am I? What is my purpose? How do I get right with God?

Tickets ($5 each) must be preordered. Right now, St. Luke's is gauging interest to determine whether one showing of the movie will be enough. There is an interest sign-up sheet in our fellowship area--if you're at all interested in attending this movie, sign your name. THIS DOES NOT COMMIT YOU TO BUYING A TICKET. (October 15th is a ways off, and sometimes we might not even know tomorrow's schedule yet...) If you are confident you'll be able to make it, you can reserve your ticket(s) now by calling the Vassar theater at (989) 823-3030 or the St. Luke's church office at (989) 823-7923.

A chance for YOU to do what you do

Every Christian has a want, a desire, a need to share the good news of Jesus with others. Here's an opportunity to do that: we're looking for one more Sunday School teacher for this upcoming Sunday School year. No experience required--just a desire to tell children about their heavenly Father. Training is available. (And if your normal schedule won't allow you to be here to teach every Sunday, we can work in a rotation of Good News tellers.) If interested or have any questions, let Pastor know.
