Thank you to Pastor Joy for presiding at worship and delivering a thought-provoking message as always! Thank you also to Dawn Richards, Kay Allen, Nathan Summerside, Angela Catton, Tim Kass and Peg McAllister for their contributions to our worship service!

Living Faith will contribute $100 towards camp fees for every student who registers to attend!

Members from St. Mark Lutheran Church of Storm Lake will join Living Faith for worship on Sunday, February 18 to present us with a donation of copies of All Creation Sings! Come worship with us this day to experience new music led by Pastor Halaas and to thank St. Mark for their generous gift!
