Dear Church Family,

I will be taking some combined study leave and vacation time in the next few weeks. Our worship services will continue to be made available on our website (www.augustanasaskatoon.net). Each week we will have a guest preacher. The ELCIC bishops and bishops’ assistants are providing these sermons. Thank you to Deborah Buck and the choir for their musical leadership and to Bryan Tastad who makes our worship accessible. Thanks also to our worship assistants: Greg, Ruth, Jayce, Javyn, Sheena, and Dale.

Our plans to return to worship in the church building are still tentative and we will continue to have taped or livestreamed services even when we do return to worship in the church building. If all goes well, we will return to the church building for worship in September. Please know that we will most certainly be following all the guidelines of the province and synod so that our worship space is safe.

Thank you to all who have contributed to our book of memories for Georgina Krenn. You may see it on our website (it is with the newsletters). The book has also been shared with Ron, Nicholas, Mitchell and Kendal Krenn. We will miss Georgina’s gracious presence in the church office and her ever full dish of sweets.

Church council and the personnel committee are working to fill the positions of administrative assistant and outside maintenance (grass cutting & snow removal). If you know of people who might fill these positions, please encourage them to submit a resume to the church office (augustana@sasktel.net).

God bless and keep you well.

Pastor Marilyn
