WELCOME TO NEW BEGINNINGS LUTHERAN CHURCH: We are glad you are worshiping with us today!

PLEASE STAY FOR FELLOWSHIP: After worship you are invited to join us downstairs for refreshments and fellowship. An elevator is located at the end of the hall.

COMMUNION: All are welcome to receive the Lord’s Body and Blood who are baptized in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit and believe that Jesus Christ, crucified and risen, is truly present in, with and under the forms of bread and wine for the forgiveness of sins, life & salvation.

The center section of each Communion tray has two types of glasses. There are glasses with white grape juice, and also glasses with a lesser amount of wine. Please feel free to take which ever will best meet your needs. The communion bread is gluten-free.

LIFETREE CAFÉ WEDNESDAY NIGHT AT 6:30 PM: The state of romance and how to keep it vibrant will be discussed at Lifetree Café.

The program, titled “Modern Romance: That Crazy Thing Called Love,” features a filmed interview with cowboy humorist and performer Gary McMahan as well as his wife of more than 20 years.

“Relationships are living things,” says McMahan. “You can kill or feed them, and the romance is in the day-to-day decisions you make.”
