Seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost Pastor Mark H. Larson, preaching

The theme of the Day:

A little faith goes a long way is Jesus’ point in the gospel A mustard seed’s worth of faith has miraculous potential. The patience, tenacity, and endurance required for the life of faith are the blessings received in holy baptism, holy communion, and the word read and proclaimed in this assembly Anticipate them Receive them with thanksgiving.

Master Planning Update

The creative and imaginative part of our master planning process is well underway. All nine of our Subject Area Groups have met, and our members are dreaming BIG for Redeemer! It is exciting to see the common themes that weave through the various sessions family life center, rooftop garden, alternative worship space, theater, outdoor classroom, covered outdoor concert space, music rooms, and even a coffee shop! These are only a few of the dreams that over two hundred of our members have discussed during this important visioning phase Our consultants continue to lead us through discerning how we can best develop our campus to enhance our ministries, strengthen our financial future, and enlarge our impact in this community and region Anyone in the congregation who was unable to attend one of the Subject Area Group Visioning Sessions is encouraged to attend our final gathering on October 2. This two hour visioning session will be both in person and online, and the insights and results will be posted on a special page on our website.
