Serve Pancakes at Grace

Picture
OSLC regularly helps to prepare and serve a pancake breakfast at Grace Lutheran in downtown Phoenix, one of our sister congregations. If you would like to help, please sign up with the church office then be at Grace at 6:15 am to begin cooking.
Our remaining 2018 dates are: September 16 and November 1.
Collaborative confirmation returns to central Phoenix!! 
Once again 6 Lutheran congregations will be working together to provide confirmation ministry for youth in grades 7, 8, and 9.

This new confirmation ministry will meet on Sunday afternoons from 12:45 pm- 3:00 pm for music, teaching, games, small groups, and prayer. We meet the 2nd and 4th Sundays of the month beginning September 9 at Prince of Peace. 

In order to make this the best confirmation ministry ever, we need lots of help:
  1. We are looking for caring, faithful adults who can commit to one year as a guide, leading a small group. Guide training will be on Sunday, August 26 at 1 pm at Our Saviour’s.
  2. We need high school youth who want to commit to a year of service as junior guides, helping with the large group and sitting in on a small group. Junior Guide Training will be held on Sunday, August 26 at 1 pm at Our Saviour’s.
  3. This ministry of deepening faith in young people, needs your prayer! If you can commit to regular praying for C.A.L.L. please let us know, as we would like to share your name with our students.
  4. Each session, lunch will be provided. We need help to provide the meal when OSLC hosts.
If you believe God is calling you to step out in faith and join in this new ministry, please contact Pastor Karn.

C.A.L.L. is a collaboration ministry between OSLC, Grace, Faith, Shepherd of the Valley, Celebration and Prince of Peace Lutheran Churches.

If you would like to register a child or grandchild for 2018/2019, please speak with Pastor Karn.

Youth Sunday Aug 19

Sunday, August 19
This is the Sunday the youth will be leading worship and sharing about their experiences at the 2018 Youth Gathering in Houston this past June.
​
At the gathering, 31,000 high school youth and their adult leaders from across the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America gathered for a week of faith formation. Through days spent in interactive learning, worship, Bible study, service and fellowship, young people grew in faith and were challenged and inspired to live their faith in their daily lives.​

Our primary scripture was Ephesians 2:8 “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God.”

OLSC High School youth partnered with Trinity Lutheran to attend this amazing week in Texas and will be offering a youth Sunday at Trinity on August 12.
