Faith Formation Ministry Bible Class and Sunday School
There will be no Sunday School or Bible Class on January 1. Classes will resume as normal next Sunday.
Stewardship Sentence  Luke 2:21 "And at the end of eight days, when he was circumcised, he was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb." There it is: the shortest Gospel lesson of the whole Church Year. It is for the festival of the Circumcision and Name of Jesus. What more do you need to know than the Name of Jesus? The Lord Saves. That's who Jesus is: the Lord who saves us sinners. That simple Gospel message is the foundation of our faith and the strength to live out our faith in action.

| Pastoral Care If you need pastoral care for any reason, don't hesitate to contact the church office or one of the vacancy pastors directly. Pastor Biermann will be at the church on Monday and Thursday mornings most weeks, and Pastor Erkkinen is available on campus on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. |
| Worship Service Live Broadcast and Service Video Archives This is just a reminder that we broadcast all of our worship services over the internet. Anyone can access these broadcasts by going to our church web site www.glendalelutheranchurch.org and clicking on the orange "live web broadcast" button. You should also be reminded that if you are not able to watch during the actual worship times that all of these broadcasts are archived and historical service broadcasts as well are available. Equally important is that, due to the underwriting of one of our members, ALL of these broadcasts are now commercial free. This commercial free capability costs $100.00/month. Since we have implemented this commercial free broadcast our number of viewers has increased dramatically from 1 or 2 to sometimes 10 or 15 with a high of 38 views. If you are led to support this financially, a designated contribution in any amount is welcome. |
