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

Just a quick update - the Ham Lake fire burns on, and the evacuation is still in effect north of County Road 85 on the Gunflint Trail. That includes all the area around Gunflint Lake.While we were delighted to see the Gecas's in church today, we were sorry that the reason they were in town and not busy with the fishing opener was because they'd been evacuated and their home and livelihood is in

As usual there was plenty of wonderful food for everyone, but the morning took an interesting twist when people suddenly started coming in and moving tables around.Soon we found out why they were here - the sheriff had ordered a mandatory evacuation on the Gunflint Trail due to the Ham

Pastor Schutte is currently serving Life in Christ as a missionary-at-large called by the Minnesota North District. If Pastor Schutte accepts the call he will be serving the congregation directly as their pastor, rather than through the District. Being

As pretty much every member of the Missouri Synod knows (unless you haven't been reading your mail or paying attention to the synod's news) we have a new hymnal, called the Lutheran Service Book. There's a ton of information available about it so I won't go into a lot of detail here - if you're interested in finding out more about it start at http://lsb.cph.org/. Suffice it to say that a lot of
