September is We Are Witnesses Month at Creator
Creator is in the midst of our We Are Witnesses month
This coming Sunday we hear from Pastor Emillie.
For the rest of September each Sunday's sermon will feature an individual addressing a current or historical aspect of Creator's ministry that has moved them.
Please join us for each of these special Sundays.
The Priesthood of All Believers Series
HOW DO YOU LIVE YOUR FAITH IN TODAY'S WORLD?
The Priesthood of All Believers - We all represent Christ in the world!
Join the discussion across the whole ELCA on how Faith informs Civic life
Five Wednesday evenings at Creator or on Zoom - Sept 27th through October 25th
Are you unsure of how to be a person of faith as well as a participant in civic life and politics?
Do you ever wonder how ELCA theologians and scholars interpret the Bible and Luther’s teachings regarding governing God’s world faithfully?
The ELCA is in the mid-point of a six year journey of crafting a social statement on Faith and Civic Life - and its time for congregational input! Churches across the ELCA are being invited into Bible study, reflection & response related to how we live out our faith as a civically engaged citizen. Feedback from congregations like Creator will be used in the formation of a future ELCA Social Statement on CIVIC LIFE AND FAITH.
Creator will begin this series of conversations with an introduction from guest pastor Brian Brandt on Wednesday September 27th from 6:30-8:00pm, on Zoom and in person. Food will be available from 6-6:30pm.
There will be four more Wednesday meetings to work through the discussion guides through the month of October.
Please join in these important conversations. We are all governing God's world, whether we know it or not. This is a wonderful opportunity for our community to explore how we faithfully represent Jesus in the world.”
If interested please contact either Pastor Emillie or the office for any additional information.
