Pastor Scott's Message
     I praise God for his work last week at Jazzfest. It was everything for which we prayed. Our neighbors came to our land and had a great time. They heard beautiful music. They laughed and shared with their friends. People relaxed and had some good food and beverage. Kids made new friends at the playground. Bubbles were everywhere. Even the dogs seemed to enjoy themselves. 
     This was all God's doing. We prayed that God would give us an opportunity to serve others as we serve Christ and the city of Glendale came calling.  Glendale Lutheran Church has the Gospel. That makes us the people of God. When we serve others, it should result in joy, laughter, friendship, and peace. Some might think that it was just a fun event. We know that it was the result of a conversation between us and our Lord. That makes it something more.
     Thank you all for your attitude. It was very encouraging to me to see you respond in such a welcoming manner. It is a big deal to open yourself to 3,000 strangers. It requires a lot of trust. You trusted my leadership and you trusted God's calling. If we continue to open ourselves to his voice, he will do even greater wonders than Jazzfest. So start praying.

Many thanks to our choir for another year of praising God through the ministry of music! These dedicated musicians are a vital part of the Sunday services. Well done, thou good and faithful singers!
Yard Work Volunteer Wanted
We are looking for a volunteer to maintain the boxwood bushes on our campus. Bushes should be trimmed as necessary (2 to 3 times per year). It is estimated to take two to three hours to trim.
