  FDR Saved to Serve - In the spring of 1941, the Egyptian passenger liner-freighter, Zam Zam, was sunk by German forces off the coast of Africa.  On board were Lutheran missionary Lillian Danielson and her six children, ages 18 months to 11 years.  Hear the story of how they - and all of us - are saved to serve.
 
  Ty Froggett Confessions of Faith - Twelve of our students took the next step in their faith in the Rite of Confirmation.  They promised to remain connected with God, their parents, and each other.  As part of their confirmation process they each wrote a Statement of Faith.    You can read these confessions by clicking here.

  Global Mission Global Mission - On January 3rd, four persons from Alpena and one from Saginaw  stepped into the new year in a way they never have before.  As part of a team from St. Paul Lutheran Church, Alpena, they boarded a jetliner for a trip to Africa.  Their destination is Cameroon, a country located on the western side of the continent, in what is often referred to as the “bite of Africa”.  Their mission was to express Christ’s compassion and further explore a growing relationship with villagers and church leaders in Cameroon.

  Faith Stepping Stones
Faith Stepping Stones
- Life is a bit like crossing a rising, rushing river.  It is easy to get swept away unless we have stepping stones:  firm places of support that enable us to make the journey.  Faith Stepping Stones are eight steps along the journey from baptism to high school graduation.  The congregation works with parents in order to gift parents with the support they need to be great parents, parents who keep their baptismal promise to their children.  Each stepping stone provides parents an opportunity to be linked with a small group support system and to: 1.  bless their child.  2.  be gifted with physical, emotional, and spiritual support.  3.  be called to accountability/keep their baptismal promises.
For more information you can visit the Faith Inkubators website.

Expectations - Pastor Paul Owens
The first building block toward a congregation's spiritual health is for members to know what is expected of them. God has made these expectations known to us in the Bible. I encourage you to watch the brief video "Expectations".  Click here for the Scripture references supporting these expectations.
