BIBLE BASIC SEMINAR

A new seminar is beginning which is an interactive discussion of the main teachings of scripture. This is a great unit for anyone considering membership at Our Savior, or someone who’s curious about what we believe, or even someone who wants to “refresh” their memory. This event is lead by Pastor Philip Scharnitzke, and will include other facilitators as well. Come to Room 18, Sundays, April 22 – June 24, 10:15-11 a.m.

Hopefully, you have marked April 28th on your calendar to attend the ANNUAL PTO AUCTION. This year’s auction will take place here at Our Savior Lutheran Ministries. The evening will start at 5:00pm with a wine and cheese reception during the silent auction. Following, will be a dinner buffet including a “build your own pasta bar”, mixed greens salad, Italian bread basket and Chef’s choice dessert. The festivities will then conclude with the excitement of a live auction. Tickets for this event are $30 each (not including wine) and went on sale Monday, April 2nd. You may purchase tickets in the Pre-school and Business Offices from 8:00am - 4:00pm. They will also be sold in ECC from 3:00-5:00pm, Monday-Thursday. In addition they will be available during the coffee hour on Sunday, April 15th and Sunday, April 22nd. This is a great fellowship and fundraising opportunity; we hope you’ll join us.
