Dear Church Family:

This week as we gather for worship in our own homes we travel back in time to the first Easter evening and join Jesus followers behind locked doors. There is a similarity to ourselves as we also live in unsettling times.

We gather for worship this Sunday with the other ELCIC congregations in Saskatoon. Resurrection will lead us all in worship. The link for worship this Sunday is at the bottom of this email and the bulletin is attached.

As a church family we are trying to regain some of our regular routine.

Church council meets by “zoom” and other church groups are also looking into that possibility. If you wish to hold a meeting by zoom, please contact me.
We will have a May newsletter next Sunday. If you have items for the newsletter please forward them to Bryan Tastad (bryan.tastad@gmail.com). Since we have not had a children’s time or Sunday school during our time away from the building there will be a children’s page as part of the newsletter. And on that note I noticed that our national bishop Pastor Susan Johnson has prepared a children’s message (https://youtu.be/36wHnNKHzgA ) for this Sunday.

I have been giving you all “assignments” to help us maintain our relationships with one another and I thank you for your efforts to do them. I have heard many expressions of appreciation for your phone calls and emails to one another. My new “assignment” to you is to contact someone who from another generation i.e. someone about 20 years older or younger than yourself.

I will continue to keep you all in my prayers and thoughts.

your sister in Christ,

Pastor Marilyn
