Peace Lutheran Church

Stewardship Snippet - March 7, 2021
“You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or male or female slave, or ox, or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor."
Exodus 20:17
In the last five commandments, God commands what not to do, expecting us to do the opposite in grateful response to divine abundance. Instead of coveting what others have, we are to cultivate a spirit of generosity that helps us love and serve our neighbors—to go the second mile.

Character of God: Slow to Anger Join Pastor Jake Fain, Deacon Andrew More, and Pastor Paul Miller as we explore the Bible together. Check out this week's episode by clicking on the title above to view Character of God: Slow to Anger. What does it mean for God to be slow to anger? In this video, we'll explore how anger and justice shape our understanding of God's character. You may watch last week's episode Character of God: Gracious by clicking HERE. Go to https://bibleproject.com Exploring The Bible Zoom Bible Study
Each Tuesday from 6:30 pm – 7:00 pm we will have an open discussion of one of the Bible Project videos. This week it will be helpful for you to watch the YouTube video of Character of God: Slow to Anger above first, but not required. We’ll spend about 30 minutes unpacking the video and opening it up for questions, insights, comments, etc. This link will work for all subsequent Tuesdays, so keep it handy. Anyone is welcome to join us! No experience with Bible study (or even the Bible) is necessary! Join us as we explore the Bible together!

This week's flowers are given by:
Stephen and Johanna Clark in honor of family March birthdays, Maya, Peter and Ethan; as well as Tim and Rebecca's wedding anniversary. |
2021 Flower Sign up
Each Sunday a beautiful arrangement of fresh flowers, donated by members and friends of the congregation, adorns the cross in the chancel area of Peace Lutheran Church. A contract with “Petals To Go” Florist in New Braunfels assures timely delivery, quality, and consistency in the arrangements at a very reasonable cost of $40 per arrangement. Flowers may be donated for occasions such as birthdays and anniversaries, in honor or in memory of a loved one, or simply ”To the Glory of God!” While we worship with St. Andrew in Canyon Lake, the arrangement will be taken to the altar there and then brought back to Peace after worship. The arrangement may be picked up at the church during office hours the following week. For questions, please contact Kathi Anderson (210) 643-8855, the Flower Coordinator for the Worship Team. To sign up for flower donations, click the button below or go to the sign up button at the bottom of Peace's homepage at peacenb.org

Three Expressions of the Church
We are part of one church body organized in three expressions — congregations, synods, and the churchwide organization. Each expression has its particular functions but all three together share a common mission of doing God’s work in the world and proclaiming the good news of Jesus Christ. Together, they ensure a solid foundation of leadership, active involvement in communities, opportunities for dialogue and diverse perspectives, creative partnerships, and support for members and ministries of the ELCA.
