DIVINE CALL ACCEPTANCE
Pastor Snyder has accepted his call to serve at St. John Lutheran Church of Lewiston, MN. We thank God for Pastor Snyder’s years of service as our pastor and Jenell’s years of service as a teacher in our school, and we pray for God’s blessings as they prepare to move and begin this new phase of life and ministry in Lewiston. Plans for a call meeting will be determined in the coming weeks.
BIBLE INFORMATION CLASS STARTING FEBRUARY 8
A new session of New Life in Christ will begin soon. This course introduces foundational Bible teachings and is suited both to those interested in becoming members of the congregation and to members looking for a catechism refresher. Classes will be held on Thursdays at 6:00pm at the Wonewoc Campus beginning February 8.
DISCIPLESHIP TEAM MEETING OPPORTUNITY
Those interested in learning more about the Discipleship Team, a group that helps members of the congregation to remain connected to God’s Word, are invited to come to the Elders meetings to learn more about the Team and discuss its work. Discipleship Team discussions happen at the start of the meeting, and you do not need to stay the whole time. The next Elders meeting is February 3 at 8:30am at the Wonewoc Campus.

ASH WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 14
Lent begins, with Ash Wednesday, which falls on February 14. As with in years past, we will have area pastors rotating as guest preachers. For the first 3 Wednesdays, (2-14, 2-21 and 2-28) services will be at the Hillsboro campus at 4:00pm and 6:30pm. The next 3 Wednesdays (3-6, 3-13 and 3-20) the services will be at the Wonewoc campus at 4:00pm and 6:30 pm. There will be a fellowship meal in between services.
WORSHIP SURVEY
A survey has been put together by the pastors and elders looking for feedback on various aspects of our worship practices. Now that we are almost two years into our use of the new hymnal, we want to gather information on how the introduction process has gone, as well as other aspects of our worship services. Paper copies are available at church, or you can fill out the survey online by going to stpaulhw.com/worshipsurvey.
