Announcements
Welcome to our Easter Visitors! Grace Lutheran Church
welcomes you to worship this morning. Please fill out a visitor
card, found in your welcome bag or available from an usher, and
place it in the offering plate.
If you have questions or are interested in hearing about
membership, please see Pastor Ryman or contact him using the
information on the front of this bulletin.
Holy Communion
Those who are baptized and believe that
Jesus Christ, crucified and risen, is truly present in, with, and
under the forms of bread and wine for the forgiveness of sins,
life, and salvation, are welcome at the Lord’s Table. Please let the
pastor know you wish to receive this gift of life by holding your
open hands toward the cup.
We encourage that young children be brought forward for a
blessing. The sign for a blessing is folded hands.
