This year, Our Redeemer's is worshiping at 9:00 am and Trinity is worshiping at 11:00am. Please join us! Tithes/Offerings may be mailed directly to the OR Treasurer, Rose Erickson.

Graduation Quilts
In 2013 Our Redeemer's started the tradition of presenting each high school graduate in the congregation with a quilt. Last year three grads were given quilts. Another three young people from our church graduated this year.
The O.R. lady's sewing group again prepared, on behalf of the congregation, three gorgeous quilts.
We wish our graduates all the best. And we hope that each time they use their quilts they remember how much their Our Redeemer's family loves them!
Congratulations to Mariah and Ronnie...
and Kaasandra!

A Lovely Weekend
So much happened at O.R. this past weekend...
Several folks showed up Saturday morning to clear brush, rake gravel, and tidy the lawn and cemetery. It only took this dedicated group about three hours to accomplish all that work! And a few kind people even brought snacks to church for the workers.
THANK YOU!
The private party that celebrated a baby shower in the church basement on Saturday left the facility sparkling clean.
We hope you enjoyed your party and...
THANK YOU!
Two of our three high school graduates were present on Sunday morning to receive the gorgeous quilts the ladies of O.R. made for them.
We are so proud of all of our graduates... and proud of our quilters too!
THANK YOU!
Special music was performed during worship by a lovely young person visiting from First Lutheran in Bemidji.
THANK YOU!
And finally, our church was full with the family of a beautiful little baby named Avery that was brought before the Lord for Baptism this Sunday. It was wonderful to worship among such a crowd of loving people celebrating this child's special day.
We wish the entire family great joy and peace, and
THANK YOU for bringing this little one to our Redeemer!
