counting Sundays) recalling Jesus’ 40-day fast in the wilderness. As Lutherans,

resources.
the time is full of prayer, service, and self-examination. Some choose to live more
simply or follow some other spiritual discipline throughout the season. The
season begins with Ash Wednesday, a day when we confess our sins and are
marked on the forehead with a cross of dust and the words, “Remember you are
dust, and to dust you shall return.”
Lenten Wednesday Meals at 5:30 p.m.
During Lent we will have a Lenten meal prior to the 6:30 p.m. service on
Wednesday nights. Different church groups have volunteered to prepare
the meals.
Ash Wednesday, February 10, the meal is meatballs, mashed potatoes,
and green beans, served by the Altar Guild.
Wonder, Awe, and Astonishment
“Therefore once more I will astound these people with wonder upon wonder.”
Isaiah 29:14
We live in a world of words and information. I don’t know about you, but I consume many words. I try to digest
and make sense of all the messages that come my way. Reflecting on this past year, I remember reading words that
turned out to be refreshing and sustaining. These words spoke of wonder, awe, and astonishment in the Christian
life.
“Wonder is a necessary disposition of the soul for this time because it promotes an awareness of transcendence
that trumps every human effort to demystify life. Ordinary awe is an invitation to a dance of images and ideas,
of wonder and reason through which, in every day experience, we glimpse traces of majesty and wonder of
God hidden in the ordinary.” – Herbert Anderson
“A fundamental element of Pentecost is astonishment. Our God is a God of astonishment.
This we know. If the church is alive she must always surprise.
It is incumbent on the living Church to astound.” – Pope Francis
Recently I marveled at God’s presence in ordinary moments.
A young couple in our congregation came forward to communion with a sweet, one week old newborn. I marveled
at the new life and their young family. That same day I watched a three-year-old run full sprint down the aisle to
receive a blessing at Holy Communion.
Awe, wonder, and astonishment right in front of me.
Each week at worship services I watch kids playfully come forward to place their offering in the world globe in the
front of the church. A few of them were carried up as little ones, and now they are walking forward, gifts in hand.
Some actually dance! They are so comfortable in their church home that they are free, before God and everyone
else, to dance in the chancel.
Awe, wonder, and astonishment right in front of me.
While leading an adult education group, I notice the thoughtful sharing. Members in the group all bring a lifetime
of reading scripture and making sense of faith in a complex world. Open, progressive, and eager to grow, they keep
discovering where faith leads.
Awe, wonder, and astonishment right in front of me.
The Christian Life is quite a journey. The congregation that I speak of in the illustrations above is your church.
Watch for the surprising presence of God hidden in the ordinary. Lent is a time to see the gift of God in our midst.
Join the journey towards Easter!

Mission Trip News
The next meeting for the Rapid City Mission Trip
will be held on Sunday, January 31, at 6 p.m. We
will be working on our upcoming fundraiser, planning our Lent meal, and working on Palm Sunday
Brunch plans. A reminder that the 2nd deposit

will be served.
Palm Sunday Brunch
Faith Family Sunday
The Youth and Family Discipleship Committee is excited
about the success of Faith Family Sundays that began last fall!
Five times throughout the Sunday School year, families are
invited to gather in the Fellowship Hall (instead of Sunday
School classrooms) to create projects together. The fourth
Faith Family Sunday will be on February 14. Families will
gather together in the Fellowship Hall to make many different
kinds of heart projects. These projects will make wonderful
gifts for grandparents, neighbors, teachers, and friends. Parents and older/younger siblings are all invited to attend.
The OSLC Youth will be serving the Palm Sunday
Brunch on Sunday, March 20. The Youth are looking
for adult volunteers willing to help out. If you are
interested and available to help, please contact
Melissa at [email protected] or at 2332412.
5th Grade Retreat
All Our Savior’s 5th graders are invited to participate
in the Holy Communion Retreat, held on
Sunday, March 13 from 11:30 a.m.—2:30 p.m.
Parents are encouraged to attend with their child.
First communion will be on Maundy Thursday,
March 24, at the 6:30 p.m. worship service.
Egg-cited to Serve God!
“Soup”er Bowl of Caring
The OSLC Youth will be holding their first ever Envelope
Fundraiser, beginning February 10 (Ash Wednesday). Pick
up an envelope in the back of the Sanctuary beginning that
evening for any dollar amount between $1 and $200. Register
your envelope with the youth sitting at the table. Bring your
envelope home and pray for the youth of Our Savior’s as they
are planning their summer mission trips. Bring the envelope,
filled with the dollar amount listed on the front (or more!),
back to Our Savior’s before March 30 (return to the youth at
the table or to the church office). The OSLC Youth appreciate
all the love and support they have received from our
congregation family and friends, and are looking forward to
another fantastic summer!
The Our Savior’s Youth will be collecting loose
change (and paper money) and canned items for
the “Soup”er Bowl of Caring again this year. On
Sunday, February 7, bring along a canned or boxed
item and all your loose change and help Our
Savior’s beat hunger! All collections will go to the
local food pantry.
Rapid City, SD Mission Trip– June 12-18
Minneapolis, MN Mission Trip– July 31-August 1
One Sunday, in a Midwest city, a young child was
"acting up" during the morning worship hour. The
parents did their best to maintain some sense of
order in the pew but were losing the battle.
Finally, the father picked the little fellow up and
walked sternly up the aisle on his way out. Just
before reaching the safety of the narthex, the little
one called loudly to the congregation, "Pray for me!
Pray for me!"
Lenten Journey
“I Thirst”
Water surrounds us in our natural world, in oceans, in rivers, and lakes. Water marks our natural lives from our
mother’s wombs, and water marks our sacramental lives in God as we die and rise with Christ at baptism, and in our
life in Christ. We continue this sacred journey until our baptisms become complete in death.
Water is part of our lives. We connect with its ancient meanings and promise in scripture. In Lent, as we make our way
to Holy Week and Easter, we realize we have a growing thirst for God. By the time we are swept up into the fullness of
Holy Week, we understand more deeply that Jesus thirsts for water on the cross. It is a physical thirst, but more
profoundly, it is a thirst for what God is doing in the cross, in the tomb, and in the resurrection.
Join the journey on Wednesdays as we worship at 2:00 p.m. and 6:30 p.m., beginning with Ash Wednesday,
February 10.
Our weekly themes will guide us to Holy Week:
Water Marks God’s Creation
Water Marks Israel’s Story and Our Story
Water Marks the Prophetic Word
Water Marks our Life of Prayer
Water Marks the Life of Christ
Water Marks the Followers of Christ
If you desire a daily devotional for your own use, please contact the church office to order or reserve a Water Marks
book by Thursday, February 4. Cost for the book is $10
