A Warm Welcome to All We wish to especially welcome all of our visitors. If we can do anything to assist you during the service, please ask one of the ushers or the person sitting next to you. Also, please sign our guest register in the back of the church. May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace in the Holy Spirit. It s a pleasure having you worship with us today and we look forward to seeing you again soon. The Lord s Gifts Jesus desires to give His gifts to every last human being in the world. And so do we at Immanuel Lutheran Church. The Lords Supper is a most magnificent gift because, within it, our Lord comes to us with his very body, and blood (the same body which hung from the cross of Calvary); forgiving us, blessing us, and sending us out to transform the entire world by making Christ known. This divine food not only makes us divine men and women, but it also forms and strengthens our common life together. To that end, we ask that those who are not under our pastoral care, please speak with Pastor Hoem, prior to communion for the first time at this altar. Our altar is open to those who confess oneness with us in doctrine, are members of our congregation or sister congregations. All who are not communing, especially young children are encouraged to approach the altar, cross their arms over their chest, and receive a blessing. Christ Among Us As Christians who believe in Jesus Christ as our Savior, Martin Luther encourages us to bless ourselves with the sign of the cross and begin each day in the name of the Triune God, as a reminder of our baptism. To that end, we here at Immanuel, ask Christ to be present with us and begin every service in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
