us in the season of Epiphany

a.m.
Worship with Holy Communion
 In
Deuteronomy God promises to raise up a prophet like Moses, who will
speak for God; in Psalm 111 God shows the people the power of God's
works. For the church these are ways of pointing to the unique authority
people sensed in Jesus' actions and words. We encounter that authority
in God's word, around which we gather, the word that trumps any lesser
spirit that would claim power over us, freeing us to follow Jesus.

Mission Investment Fund of the ELCA
Mission
congregations, established congregations, and ELCA-related ministries
can finance capital building projects with competitively priced loans
and take advantage of comprehensive building-consulting services through
the Mission Investment Fund of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in
America. Individual members, congregations and ministries of the ELCA
can purchase investments through the fund, earning interest at
competitive rates. With these investments, the Mission
Investment Fund makes loans to help congregations purchase land,
expand their current facilities or begin new building projects that
directly benefit their members and surrounding communities. Currently, the
Mission Investment Fund has nearly 800 active loans totaling over $450
million to ELCA ministries throughout the United States, Puerto Rico and
the Virgin Islands. Though the loans are for a wide range of uses, they
all have one thing in common: each is helping to grow the ELCA and
advance its mission. For more information please visit the mission
investment fund.
