The Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost August 15, 2010
HERITAGE LUTHERAN CHURCH 308 Washington St Valparaiso IN 464-2810 Rev. Joe Ostafinski, Pastor
This morning God richly blesses us through His Word, and also the Sacrament of The Lord’s Supper in which we receive the very body and blood of our Savior Jesus for the forgiveness of our sins and strengthening of our faith. If you are a visitor to our church today and a member of another congregation of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod, we welcome you to our altar to partake of this Sacrament. If you have a question about this, you may speak to the Pastor before worship. Thank you and welcome! The altar flowers are given today in thankfulness of God’s blessings as we celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary and Evelyn’s mom and dad’s 55th wedding anniversary. The Gallagher family. Thank you Rev. Mike Porter for leading us today in worship. Pastor Ostafinski is not here today because he is having surgery tomorrow. He will be out of the office the next few weeks recovering. In the event of an emergency Pastor Bob Hauter from St. Paul, Kouts will fill in. If you need to contact him directly his cell phone is 510-7288. Also, if you need someone to make a hospital visit, please contact Beth in the church office. Heritage Annual Church Picnic is next Sunday, August 22! Please see the sign up sheet in the parish hall.
