First Lutheran Church

As we continue to celebrate the fifty days of Easter, today’s gospel includes Jesus’ promise that he goes to prepare a place for his followers in his Father’s house. Our baptism commissions us to share Jesus’ mission in the world. As 1 Peter reminds us, we are a holy people, called to proclaim the one who called us out of darkness into light. In words and deeds we bear witness to the risen Christ—our way, our truth, our life. We also commemorate and hold in prayer the Community of Faith Lutheran Church, Cambridge and their pastor, The Reverend Robin Lutjohann. Fire ravaged their building on Easter Sunday. Today we raise money, support, and love for this community as they recover and are restored to new life in Cambridge.
