WE „HEART‟ JESUS – In February we celebrate St. Valentine‟s Day. All year long, we celebrate the love of God in
giving us His son to die on the cross for our sins. We pray that our visitors see that love at Our Saviour. Please let us
know you were here; fill out the Fellowship Pad (it‟s in the hymnal rack) with today‟s date, your name, address, etc.
SUNDAY BIBLE CLASS – Come to the Parlor today to study the book of Philippians. We will pick up where we left off
two weeks ago. There are two times for your convenience each Sunday…9:15am and 10:30am.
PLEASE FILL OUT YOUR COMMUNION CARD – When you are communing, please read and complete a card
from your pew rack. This reminds us of the importance and meaning of this meal. It also assists the pastors and Elders in
meeting the needs and concerns of missing members.
NURSERY AND SUNDAY SCHOOL – Children toddling to age 3 are invited to the Nursery (9:15am service only) and
ages 4 to grade 6 are welcome in Sunday School (children are dismissed to go to class after the Children‟s Sermon);
classes end at 10:30am. If you need assistance, please talk to an usher. If you need a registration form, they can be found
in the office hallway (in the tall brochure holder by the youth bulletin board).
2. 2011 THEME: HIS LOVE-OUR RESPONSE – In the bulletin today is a „Response Form‟. How might you respond to
the new life He has given you? How might you “stretch yourself” to grow in ways that are new to you? How might you
serve Him, joyfully? Please drop off your completed form at the Welcome Center.
YOUTH NIGHT THIS WEEK – Come for homework help, to study and play and eat a great meal for just $3. Youth up
to grade 6 can stay until 6pm when 7th and 8th graders go to class; Senior High youth are welcome to stay until 7:30pm.
CHOIR REHEARSALS – They‟re back! We practice each Tuesday at 7:00pm; newcomers are always welcome. Please
come sing with us as we prepare music for the Lenten/Easter season. Got questions? Call Judy O'Grady (469-0948).
LAST CHANCE…CAMP LUTHER FOR FREE?!? – Camp Luther has offered 4 of their „Camperships‟ to Our
Saviour. If your child is in grades 3-8 and has NEVER been to Camp Luther for Summer Camp, he/she is eligible. For
your chance to win, sign up at the Welcome Center today! A random drawing will be used to determine the winners from
the entries received by Sunday, February 13. Winners will be announced on the 20th by a Camp Luther representative.
YOUTH NIGHT CHANGES COMING – Get ready for it! Beginning March 9 (Ash Wednesday), there will be no
Confirmation Class on Wednesdays BUT Confirmation Youth are expected to attend a Lenten Service (at either 4pm or
6:30pm). Homework help, study time, play time, etc. will be available, as usual beginning at 3:00pm but ending at
6:30pm. The meal each night will be served by a different church group for a free will offering. This is the only
scheduled time for Youth Night to be held on non-Confirmation nights.
GIFT CARDS…FOR YOUR EVERYDAY NEEDS – It‟s so easy. Just stop by the Welcome Center and purchase gift
cards for groceries, medications, gas, restaurants, and more. Instead of using cash or a credit card at the store, just pull out
