Sanctuary Crucifix
At the April voters meeting, it was voted on to consider a large crucifix in our Sanctuary. Maggie and Dave Dory have obtained sample for you to see in the fellowship hall. The cross is on loan from Cozgrave Company Omaha, NE. We are seeking donations for a 63” cross which will be approximately $2,800.00.
Corpus—The sculptures are crafted in northern Italy by Master Artisans. For over 300 years, this region, the Val Gardena, has been know for nurturing artists and artisans crafting sculptures of wood, bronze, and marble. The style and finishing is unique to this region and is recognizable worldwide.
PEMA carvings are known for their realistic expression, whether the customer prefers a simple stain or handpainted natural radiance. For more information speak with Maggie Dory.

Life Quote: “John 14:18-19 says, ‘I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live.’ Isn’t that but a promise and encouragement from God to those of us who give of our time to help these needy ones? With the help of our families—and our church families—God is telling us to share of our time with those who are desperate and alone.” Rick Fey, foster and adoptive dad – A “Life Quote” from Lutherans For Life · www.lutheransforlife.org
