In this year of congregational transition, I invite you to
consider the season of Lent as a time of reflection, something
like a weekly Sunday morning retreat. During each Sunday we are
invited to ponder core realities of our faith and of life as
members of the Christian community known as St. John’s. By God’s
grace through hymns, words, prayers and holy sacraments, we open
ourselves to the renewal of our commitment to Christ and God’s
mission in the world, both as individuals and as a congregation.
Greetings, members and friends of St. John’s Lutheran
Church.
It took an amazingly affirmative invitation from your
congregational council to bring me out of retirement. I am
thrilled and eager to become your interim senior pastor.
