Well, we had a lot fewer people in worship yesterday. But we enjoyed the gathering nonetheless. Here's yesterday's sermon:



In other news, life with four kids keeps plodding along. Audrey took Amsale in to the doctor again and she's got another ear infection -- so we give her antibiotics again. But she's sleeping LOTS better now. So we hope that we can clear this ear thing up and start enjoying sleep again.

No major projects this week. Just continuing to make connections, prepare for Advent, etc.

And that's the news from Browerville.

Confirmation News - April 11, 2022

Confirmation families, A blessed Holy Week to you all.  Just a couple of notes. 1) I am looking for some volunteer acolytes on Maundy Thursday at 6:30p and Easter morning at 8:30 & 10.  You will earn a service note. 2) Our class time resumes April 20 and 27, 6:30-7:30pm.  There will be no Wednesday meal or worship those evenings (or classes for other age groups).  After these two sessions, we will be done for the year. 3) With the services switching to one 9:30 service on April 24, I modified the acolyte schedule.  If you haven't seen that, it's here:  https://www.wadenaimmanuel.org/_files/ugd/4769c4_24c0b9f658ed4263b0b4703afb72001c.pdf Let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

How Can Bread and Wine Do THAT?!!

We started our catechetical journey through Holy Communion last week.   As a reminder, last week’s except from the Large Catechism focused on the importance of confessing that the effectiveness of Holy Communion depends on God’s faithfulness.   Humans preside and participate in the meal.   But finally, it is God’s meal. Today’s excerpt from the Large Catechism discusses our doubt that bread and wine could possibly become Christ’s body and blood and provide forgiveness and eternal life: “(We) rant and rave, ‘How can bread wine forgive sins or strengthen faith?’ … (but) we do not claim this of bread and wine – for in itself bread is bread – but of that bread and wine that are Christ’s body and blood and that are accompanied by the Word.   These and no other, we say, are the treasure through which such forgiveness is obtained.   This treasure is conveyed and communicated to us in no other way than through the words “given and shed for you.”   …   Chri...
