.."Psalm 48"

1 From heav'n O praise the
LORD; Ye heights, His glory raise.
2 All angels, praise accord; Let all His host give praise.
3 Praise Him on high, Sun, moon, and star, Sun, moon, and star,
4 Ye heav'ns afar, And cloudy sky.
5 Yea, let them glorious
make Jehovah's matchless name;
For when the world He spake They into
being came.
6 And from that place Where fixed they be, Where fixed they be,
By His decree They cannot pass.
7 From earth O praise the
LORD; Ye deeps and all below;
8 Wild winds that do His word, Ye clouds, fire, hail, and snow;
9 Ye mountains high, Ye cedars tall, Ye cedars tall,
10 Beasts great and small, And birds that fly.
11 Let all the people praise,
And kings of ev'ry land;
Let all their voices raise Who judge
and give command.
12 By young and old, By maid and youth, By maid and youth,
13 His name in truth Should be extolled.
Jehovah's
name be praised Above the earth and sky.
14 For He His saints has raised And set their power on high.
Him praise accord, O Isr'el's race, O
Isr'el's race,
Near to His grace. Praise ye the LORD.
The numbers are Bible verse numbers in Psalm 148.

Pastoral Care ~ What do these two words mean to you? A congregation is given a pastor as a
Shepherd to care for you, its members (sheep), both in spiritual and physical
ways. He is not only the spiritual
leader of this congregation, but his calling includes much more. The pastor cares for the congregational
members, whomever they may be, when he conducts regular services each week
telling us of the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, administers the
sacraments, counseling and uplifting those of us that need reassurance,
visiting the members in hospitals, nursing homes, shut-ins in their own homes,
meeting the physical needs of those in need, and caring for all of us in times
of distress and sorrow or other family situations.
Our Pastor and family now needs our
SUPPORT, PRAYERS, KINDNESS, COMFORT and HELP while undergoing this period in
his life regarding the cancer and medical treatments he now faces. We need to come together as a congregation to
give to him and his family the support needed since he has given so much to all
of us. I believe that caring for one
another is a vital part of Stewardship.
As it was said in a sermon a few months ago Lets Do It. Let us show our Christian love and compassion
to our Pastor and his family.
Robert
Haensel, Congregational Chairman
Your
Saviors peace to you, and ...
