Special Sunday

This Sunday, April 21, we hold ONE Service at 10:00 AM at our Church, 906 East Grant Street.   Why?  Each semester we suspend our normal schedule just once and bring the whole church family together in one service.  In the Fall, it's held at the Student Center.  In the Spring, at the Church.

906 East Grant Street.

9:00 AM Continental Breakfast, with Sunday School Devotions.

10:00 AM Divine Service.

LSF students are going out for brunch after worship! 

Tell your friends.  Share rides.  Need a ride?  Email lutheran@macomb.com or call 309-833-5483!  

Cold start to the semester!

Welcome back!  The LORD bless you as you begin the Spring semester.  We hope your break was refreshing, and you're ready to learn well and be deeply involved in worship, prayer, study, and fellowship through our campus ministry.  Need help? Contact Pastor Burdick at 309.833.5483 or mhburdick@gmail.com.  

Bible Study - Wednesdays at 8pm.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, 

and the love of God, 

and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit

be with you all.

Amen!  

Let us pray ...

Lord God, You have called Your servants to ventures of which we cannot see the ending, by paths as yet untrodden, through perils unknown.  Give us faith to go out with good courage, not knowing where we go, but that Your hand is leading us and Your love supporting us;  through Jesus Christ our Lord, Thy will be done. Amen.  

October...

Cool weather, coffee, hot chocolate, grace, mercy, peace, and Reformation.  God bless you with these and more.

Our former student, Eric (right) presented us with a Chinese hanging depicting Galatians 2:20.  Eric's now a teacher in Macua, China.  Do you know Gal 2:20?  It's a wonderful passage. 

  

The LSF lounge has been put back together.  A great place for Bible Study, conversation, movies, and PS3.

Move-in weekend

Join us for Sunday worship.  You may *need* the refreshment after move-in.  Truth be told, most of you will find move-in to your dorm or your apartment to be hassle free.  I hope it goes well.

On Sunday, our 8:30am Service is held at our CHURCH, 906 E Grant St.  That's about two miles from campus, near the hospital.  Sunday School and Bible Study are held at the Church at 9:45.

Our 11:00am Service is held at our Student Center, 303 N Clay, right on the south edge of campus.  That 11am start time is much more popular among you college students.

Our theme this Sunday is the Old Testament Lesson, Proverbs, chapter 9 ---  "The Beginning of Wisdom."  It's a really timely lesson for the beginning of the academic and campus ministry year.   All true wisdom -- secular or sacred -- comes from God.  You'll be enticed by many kinds of folly, though, while at college.  The Gospel isn't the balance to that enticement, it's the answer, and it is true wisdom.  Come for the Gospel.

We're eager to see you.  God's peace, in Christ!   -- PB

Soon and very soon ...

...campus and our student center will be buzzing with more activity.  We're looking forward to it.  While Sunday Services are held throughout the summer, it will be a particular joy to have many familiar and new students with us on Sunday, August 19, the day before Fall classes begin.  Families are welcome, too!

Wednesday, August 22, join us for our Bible Study launch from 8:00-9:00pm.

And make room in your Christmas Break calendar for this:
