God Connects (Basic Christianity)
Joe Staton Ed #5
Ideal for people who are interested in what the Lutheran Church teaches and believes.
Faith Lessons
Tom Cox Fellowship Hall
Experience the Bible in historical context.
Missional Church
Pastor Ray Library
What would you say? Once upon a time, being a Christian in America was comfortable. Not anymore. A skeptical culture is asking questions, but many Christians are completely unprepared to answer. This study will help prepare you to face the world with clarity, confidence, and courage.
Pericopes
Ross Binkley Ed #6
Dig deeper into the week’s three Scripture readings used on Sundays from the lectionary series. The lectionary series is a list of readings that were not a randomly select but compiled with forethought and purpose. Identify and explore the common theme in this week’s pericopes.
Youth Sunday School has resumed.
Genesis
Family Life Minister Curtis Youth Room
The purpose of the Bible is to point us to Christ Jesus. This study seeks to understand the world from a biblical perspective while highlighting the redemptive work of God through Christ revealed to us in Genesis.

Dinner for Eight [D48]
Dinner for Eight (D48)
Again I want to thank you for volunteering to lead our small group efforts. After meeting with the Elders Board and Pastor Ray and FLM Curtis we have taken the position that we should suspend our D48 meetings for at least 90 days and take another look in early July to see if there are still strong social restrictions remaining.
Please pass on to your D48 group and let’s see if we will take it up again after 90 days. Recall that we have already planned a summer break from June through August so it is sort of like we are breaking early. I know my group did not completely make it through the planned 5 meetings but social distancing is one of the more effective tools we have to combat this contagious virus.
God’s peace to you and your families and your D48 groups. Prayers for our country and the citizenry of our nation and the world as we fight this disease.
Don’t forget that next Sunday we will again live stream GSLC Sunday worship at 0900 CSDT on our Website through Facebook. In case you missed last Sunday’s service it is now one click away on that same website.
This Sunday, Pastor Ray’s sermon [always very topical] will have a special relevance to our reactions to this Corona Virus. Please let me know if you have any questions.
God’s peace
