Members of Faith:
Help us keep in touch with you!
Plans for our picture directory last year were understandably changed, but we’re working now on moving toward this year’s update. Please click HERE or on the picture to enter your current contact information (even if you think we have it already). After March 1 we’ll try to reach out to those who have not yet responded. But this will greatly help our effort to update and verify our records in preparation for a new directory. Thank you!
News & Events
Endowment
Faith’s Parish Planning Council is pleased to announce that $30,000 has been identified as income from Faith’s Endowment Fund that can be used by ministry teams and other congregational entities in 2021 to support new ministry opportunities outside of Faith’s regular operating budget.
Ministry Teams and members of Faith may COMPLETE THIS APPLICATION and submit it via email, US mail, or in person. All applications must be received in the church office no later than Sunday, February 28.
Five years ago, Faith Lutheran Church established this endowment fund from special gifts of members and friends of the congregation. It is a separate fund from the weekly contributions that support the regular budgetary needs of the church. The Endowment Fund is intended to enhance the mission of Faith Lutheran Church by enabling the congregation to expand and continue a vision of stewardship and support for responding to important needs and new ministry opportunities.

The devil constantly tempts us to keep the news of salvation through Christ to ourselves. The devil loves to make us think that we are inadequate messengers, or too busy, or unable to make a difference in someone else’s life. The Good News is that Christ was tempted in every way just like us, but He remained without sin. By His own resistance to the devil, our Lord strengthens us in the midst of our own temptations and failures and equips us to be bold witnesses to Christ’s victory over sin, death and the devil.
