Throughout the building, you will see Call Process posters. We are currently in step one of the Preparation Phase:

“Transition Begin.” The Assistant to the Bishop we will be working with is Pastor Juliet Focken. Pastor Juliet is working with Pastor Heather and the Council to identify  an interim pastor (Transitional Minister) to work with Pastor Heather throughout the call process.   

Congregation members are invited to attend Adult Forum following worship on Sunday March 6th. Pastor Juliet will be here to talk us through the call process and answer questions.

The major focus of the meeting was planning this transitional period, starting with arranging an Interim Pastor.

Dear Holy Cross Lutheran Church,

Thank you for your gift of $1,000 to Lutheran Disaster Response.

This, this is Christ the king, whom shepherds guard and angels sing; haste, haste to bring him laud, the babe, the son of Mary! ("What Child Is This," ELW 296)

This season we remember a time before Christ's birth, when humanity waited to be delivered from fear and sin. But we also remember the day the waiting ended. Our Savior arrived, and now we live in a world transformed by God's grace. Through your gifts to Lutheran Disaster Response, you share the everlasting joy of that transformation with our neighbors around the world.

Your Spirit-filled generosity helps families and communities reeling from disasters here in the United States and across the globe. No matter the disaster, no matter the need, your gifts to Lutheran Disaster Response enable people to rebuild their lives and livelihoods now and far into the future.

Jesus was born to reign in us forever. Now you are inviting countless others into his gracious kingdom. Thank you.

In Christ,

The Rev. Robin Brown - Director, Congregational Generosity
