One Family Bible Class As the kids take a vacation from Sunday School, it gives us adults an opportunity to tackle a timely issue. Join us in the Family Life Center over the next 4 weeks as we study "The Intersection of Church and State." This is an award winning, video based Bible study produced by Lutheran Hour Ministries. With issues of religious freedom becoming more and more prevalent it is important to understand what God's Word has to say about the Church and the state. Join us. Stewardship Sentence  Luke 10:40 "Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone?" Martha is doing the right thing, but in the wrong order. Her service to the Lord is good - but she has let it get ahead of hearing His Word. Mary has placed the Word first, which is good: is there any doubt that she will rise once she has heard the Word and get to serving as well? Isn't that what hearing the Word always leads us to do? We listen, then respond; we believe and thus we act! Tuesday Morning Bible Study There will be no Bible Study for the next three Tuesdays (July 19, July 26, August 2) due to Pastor Wise being on vacation.

Community Service Opportunity to Help Pastor Dave Pastor Dave needs our help. He needs volunteers to help him with Vacation Bible School at his new parish, St. Paul's in College Hills (north St. Louis). His VBS is scheduled for July 18-22 from 6:00pm-8:00pm each evening. Pastor Dave has asked if we could get a group together that would meet here at GLC and then travel together in one or two cars. We would leave about 5:00pm to arrive by 5:30pm. If you can help, please sign up on the Outreach bulletin board in the hallway. This is a wonderful opportunity to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with inner city kids and put a little joy in their lives.
