Faith Ministry Stories

Holy Advent Visit

Posted by Faith Lutheran Staff on

Faith ministry continues, even as we remain physically distant. We celebrate God's Spirit leading us this past week.

What an amazing and affirming response to our Praise God! stewardship campaign. 170 ribbons, one for every statement of intent received, adorn the Memorial Prayer Garden. We are so blown away by the faithfulness and generosity of this congregation to support God's work through Faith Lutheran. 

20 fantastic volunteers transformed our Memorial Prayer Garden into a vision of light and hope for the Advent season and beyond. Stop by for a holy Advent visit. It's especially spectacular after dark.

Thank you for your enthusiastic response to the invitation to join in our congregation virtual singing of our opening song for Advent, "Waiting." We're already had 16 participants send in videos, and can't wait to see our virtual all-congregation choir grow as the weeks go by.  We are blessed to be able to make safe choices that reduce aerosol in the sanctuary on Sundays. Our worship continues to be impactful even when music is pre-recorded. We celebrate the collaborative spirit of our music staff and musical congregation!

"I love this idea!" The response to our new laptop outreach ministry has been terrific. Faith Lutheran Laptop Refurbishing Project (FLURB for short. Say it out-loud 5 times. It's guaranteed to make you smile), connects refurbished older laptops with folks in the community who need a laptop for job searches, distance learning, etc. We've already received 6 donated laptops! Members of our ever creative and awesome tech team are equipping them with hard drives and batteries as needed.  And to make this cool project even more awesome, Faith gets to support it with mission grant funds!  Thank you for helping us get the word out to the community by sharing it on Facebook.

Do you remember Nate Bergengren's Summer Couch Series concert back in July? Well, here’s another opportunity to participate in something truly special. Mark your calendars for the Outlaw Ranch Christmas Special, happening Thursday, December 10th at 8pm Central/7pm Mountain! While the show won't be live like the Couch Series was, we will have a watch party on Facebook and YouTube so we can experience it together and comment in real-time. After that it will be on Facebook and YouTube for you to enjoy throughout the Holiday season. Can't wait to share it with all of you!

As you witness ministry happening in your home or neighborhood, or as you share God's grace with others, let us know so we can celebrate with you! Email
