The fires in Paradise, CA have kind of slipped from our minds with all the weather related stuff going on. But for the people of Paradise the healing continues. An artist by the name of Shane Grammer has been putting up murals on the structures that are left in Paradise. And the only thing left at Hope Christian Church (the church we donated to this past Christmas) is the Baptismal Fount. Shane has created a beautiful mural. Check out the picture. There are about a dozen in all gracing the sides of vehicles, fireplaces, and brick walls.

So you want to be a Lutheran...

We just talked about this in Sunday School! How cool that this message keeps coming from multiple areas. The building is simply a place to praise. God is out in the world.

It takes all kinds...

Here is a sneak peek of Peace's Holiday Craft Bazaar!! Doors open at 9 am--be there early!

A beautiful day for outdoor worship. Join us at 9:30 am as we hear and experience Jesus' love and mercy.

Oh man! And then I laughed and laughed!!!

Happy Father's Day!! Come and join us for outdoor worship tomorrow at 9:30 am.

The Ladies Guild at Peace does so much for the church and community. This is a picture of their end of the year luncheon.

Well, if we have to put up with mosquitoes...

Whenever I see a pic like this it just makes me chuckle.

To You Who Bring Small Children to Church There you are sitting in worship or Bible study. Your child, or toddler, is restless. Perhaps they’re even a little boisterous. You try to silence them, and nothing. You try to pacify them with food or toys, and nothing. Eventually, you resort to the last thing you wanted to do: you pick them up, and before a watching audience, you make the march out of the auditorium. All the while, you’re a little embarrassed. Maybe you’re a little frustrated too. You might even think to yourself, “There’s no point in coming to church. I get nothing out of it because I have to constantly care for my kid.” I want you — you mothers and/or fathers — to know just how encouraging you are to so many. The little elderly woman who often fills alone beams with a smile at the sight of you wrestling with your little one. She’s been there before. She knows how hard it can be, but she smiles because to hear that brings back precious memories. To see young parents and their small children brighten her day, and she may have just received bad news this week about her health, but seeing the vitality of young ones removes — if but for a moment — her fears. The older man who always seems to be grouchy notices you too. He’s always talking about how children in this day have no respect or sense of good. But, he sees you — a young family — in church, and you don’t miss any gathering. Like clockwork, he can depend on the sight of you and your young family. You give him hope that maybe the church isn’t doomed after all, because there are still young parents who love God enough to bring their restless children to worship. Bring your children to church. If you don’t hear crying, the church is dying. As hard as it might be for you as a parent who’s half-asleep, keep on doing what you’re doing. You are an encouragement, and you’re starting off your children’s lives as you should. Copied: (Author Unknown)
