Bulletin – 5th Sunday in Ordinary Time

/ kredig

Dear Friends,

Mass on Sunday, February 4, 2018 at 10 A.M. –Pastor Dick Dahl will be presiding.

Our total for collected non-perishable food items for January, 2018 was 30# –remember that we collect these food items each Sunday so you can bring them whenever you join us for liturgy–these items are then taken to the food shelf once a month. Thank you Julie Quist for getting our collection there this past week! 

This week’s theme seems to come from the words of the psalmist, “God heals the broken-hearted.” We are “educated” in the life of the prophet and see, in the person of Job that faith asks much of us at times–in the sentiment of Paul, once started down the road; there is no help for those convicted by the message of Jesus.  In Jesus’ words, “This is what I have come to do!

Come; be with the All Are One community this Sunday to gain the strength each of us needs to “preach the Word–with words or without.

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy

Bulletin – 4th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Dear Friends,

Mass on Sunday, January 28, 2018 at 10:00 A.M. 

Save the Date: February 24, 2018, 10:00 A.M.–12 Noon –Sanctuary Church Information Meeting–First Congregational church–161 W. Broadway–Winona–RSVP for planning purposes–winonainterfaith@gmail.com  (507-450-6405)

Today’s liturgy calls us to “harden not your hearts.”  Jesus’ actions today with regard to the demon-possessed man were all about compassion for his suffering.  We, friends, are called to the same–our response must always be compassion for and action for those in need.

Come; discern and pray with us this week!

Peace and love,

Dear Friends,

Mass on Saturday, January 20, 2018 at 4:30 p.m. 

Election for the Board is this Saturday.  Final call for any who would like to run for the board.  One position is open.  Kathy Krage has agreed to run for this position, but more are welcome to run.  The positions of Mary Ludwigson, Pauline Christensen and Nancy Miller are up this year.  Mary and Nancy have agreed to run again and Pauline said that she would step down, thus the one open position. 

Remember our food collection at each liturgy for the Winona Food Shelf.

There is an urgency this week encouraging us to live our ordinary lives extraordinarily well.  Come; be with us this week to help each other do that!

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy

Bulletin – 2nd Sunday in Ordinary Time

/ kredig

Dear Friends,

Mass on Sunday, January 14, 2018 at 10 A.M.

Remember our collection of canned goods for the Winona Volunteer Services food shelf.

Remember too that we are collecting warm hats, gloves, mittens and scarves for the Warming Center.  We will do this through January. 

Calling for anyone who would like to run in our church board election this month. We have one person running for the spot that is open, but if you are wishing to throw your hat in, let me know! We will have elections, Saturday, January 20 and Sunday January 28, 2018.

The Church Year calls us back from the crib  this week to Jesus’ mission among us–a reality check so to speak.  We would like to perhaps linger at the crib a while longer, but Jesus’ invitation this week to his first disciples and to us, is that we, “Come and see”  what he would like us to do.

Come; be with us this week as we reflect on how to answer Jesus’ invitation.

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy

Readings: 

  • 1 Samuel 5: 3-10, 19

Dear Friends,

Mass is on Sunday, January 7, 2018 at 10 A.M.

Pastor Dick Dahl will be hosting another session of The Red Boot Way beginning Wednesday, January 17, 2018–at 10 A.M.  For questions, call Pastor Kathy, 507-429-3616.

We will be having the election for three board members in January–think and pray about whether God may be calling you to this ministry. 

Our clarion call today is to “arise and shine”–to bring light to all the dark places.  The feast of the Three Kings, or Epiphany is all about manifesting the presence of God, here and now! This day marks the official end to the Christmas Season, but let us remember to carry the Christmas spirit with us throughout the year!

Come; join us this Sunday to praise and thank our God for all that is good in our lives.

Peace and love,

Pastor Kathy
