Raising Up Families and Followers of Jesus Christ
NOTES, NEWS & EVENTS
STREAMING SERVICES
We currently offer streaming of our worship services via a service called RESI. It provides a significantly more stable video stream, and we pray that it will prevent many of the issues that we have been encountering — freezing video, audio clipping, etc. On the 5th we invite you to go to https://faithlutheranlacey.online.church in order to join in worship at Faith Lutheran. As you join, you do not have to create an account. You should see an interface that shows a black box for watching the live stream. There will also be a side bar where you can select a built-in Bible, any notes for the service, and a schedule for upcoming live streams. In the future there will be a place to chat with other online worship attenders.
GATHER & GROW HOUR
The Gather & Grow hour is designed as a learning time for adults and children between Sunday morning worship services.
​
Adult Class -Studying the Hymns​
Join us as we delve into the history, Bible references and meaning of five familiar hymns.
Led by Erin Holmquist Sundays at 9:30 am in the Community Center Cypress room from May 4 - early June.
VBS TEAM NEEDED
VBS Registration is now open! Join us June 23–27 for True North VBS, an unforgettable Alaskan adventure that points them to Jesus, our True North. Register by June 9, space is limited! You can also support the VBS ministry by donating through the Breeze app (select "VBS Donation") to help sponsor a child or contribute to the many supplies needed. Our VBS is completely volunteer-run, and we need parents, grandparents, big siblings, and middle and high schoolers to help make this a memorable week.

Sarah Zander has stepping into the lead coordinator role and needs a team of people to plan and execute the popular event. The dates have been set for June 23 – 27. Worried you won't have what it takes? If you love Jesus, children, and having fun, you are fully equipped!

MONTHLY PINOCHLE MEETING
If you play Pinochle, please plan to join us on the 3rd Thursday of every month. We bring a bit of something to share with the group to eat, this starts around noon, and the playing starts around 12:30. If you do not know how to play, please do not let that stop you. We can teach you. It is a lot of fun, and we are normally finished by 2:00.
Join us May 15!

CHILDREN'S RESOURCE
A wonderful resource to help your child understand the what, how and why of Lutheran worship is now available through LCMS called “Kids in the Divine Service”. Visit lcms.org/worship/youth-in-worship to see what is available. This is also a great resource for anyone who may be new to the Lutheran faith.
CHRISTIAN RADIO
Faith comes by hearing and you can hear the sung and spoken Word on many radio stations. Program in a Christian radio station that suits you and your family. You never know when God may use just the right message for just the right time.
