Summer Schedule Begins

Starting this Sunday, June 7, Life in Christ will begin its summer schedule. We will have our regular service at the Cook County Community Center at 9:00 Sunday mornings, and then we will have an additional service at 11:00 at Heston's Lodge on the Gunflint Trail. If you're vacationing on the Trail, please stop by and join us on Sunday morning!

Year in Review

Yes, it's been quite a while since we posted information to this site! Blame it on busy schedules and a lack of news to report. Hopefully both will improve, but I'm not making any promises at this point!

Meanwhile, here are a few highlights from the last year at Life in Christ Lutheran Church:

• We welcomed some new members, including the Mesenbring, Bockovich and Berglund families.
• For the third summer, we conducted a second Sunday service at Heston's lodge at the end of the Gunflint Trail. We thank Gecas's for hosting our service at their lodge and look forward to having services there again this summer.
• This summer we did Vacation Bible School a little differently - instead of having classes each morning for a week, we had them one morning a week for six weeks. This schedule was much easier on both teachers and parents, and we're planning to do VBS this way again this coming year.
• This fall we began having a Sunday school after church. It's a pleasure to see the little children learning about Jesus, their Savior!
• On the down side, we continue to struggle financially. Our pastor's final compensation in 2008, including benefits, was about 46% of his designated compensation package. So far this year is looking about the same - please keep us in your prayers on this matter!
