[Sunday] Under Roman Roads - God's Greater Story - Romans 13
Service [above] Sermon releases at 10pm [under]
Questions for the Week
What do you think makes a good political leader?
Read Romans 13:1-14. How does Paul offer a different perspective of our leaders? Who ultimately is in charge?
What does knowing that “there is no authority except from God and those that exist have been instituted by God” (Romans 13:1b) enable you to do?
What would the world look like if Chrstians focused more on loving our neighbors, one on one, rather than fighting over politics?

AWESOME SUPPORT! $436.59 has been collected for the CareNet baby bottles! A huge thank you for all who have participated. Last Sunday was the final day for the fund drive, however, if you still have a bottle please bring it in or if you would like to make an additional donation to CareNet we will accept them anytime.
PLEASE CALL PEOPLE I realize I take for granted that people just come to the church on a regular basis. So that we all don’t descend into madness, let’s call and talk to each other regularly. Phone directories are available for your convenience.
Online Giving We have now added Paypal for online donations. We have been approved as a trusted non profit organization. If you would like to give through Paypal, please go to: www.GraceLutheranPSL.com and click the “GIVE” button on the upper right side of the page.
CRAFTERS’ GROUP Will meet Tomorrow, Monday, August 3, from 10:30 AM till 2:00 PM (lunch provided!). Please wear your mask, and we will keep safe distance while enjoying fellowship and will “craft” new and enjoyable items. Contact Judy Fredrick pjfred@outlook.com for info.
(We will also be meeting next Monday, August 10th.)
CALLING ALL BOOKBAGS, PENCILS, AND OTHER SCHOOL SUPPLIES! “Habitat for Children’s Ministry” led by Meschac St. Amour is looking for school supplies to be used by students in Haiti this coming school year.
COMMUNION ON WEDNESDAY: If you, or someone you know, would like to celebrate Holy Communion but prefer a small group or unable to attend Sunday service, Pastor Cris has set aside Wednesday’s to celebrate the meal in small/family groups. Please come by on Wednesday at: 11:00, 11:20, 11:40 or 12:00 (noon) and partake of this wonderful meal.
SEE YOUR GRACE FAMILY ON ZOOM! Pastor and Coli will be hosting Zoom to Coffee at NOON on Sunday for those who are worshipping at home, or in person, who would like to join in fellowship “virtually” to see and chat with Grace members and friends safely. All are welcome!
BIBLE STUDY FOR ALL Pastor Cris is conducting a “live” Bible study online for you to participate in on Thursdays at 11:00 AM. Directions for participating can be found on the web page www.GracelutheranPSL.com. ** You are also welcome to attend the Bible Study at church, in person! ** Seating with social distancing along with wearing your mask is now happening, at the Bible Study on Thursday and at Worship on Sundays at 8:30 AM and 10:15 AM.
GIVING - Changing over to a social distance model of ministry has been quite challenging. We needed to purchase new equipment and the overall church’s expenses did not go down even though we were not meeting in person. We are here to provide “Grace and Peace in this Chaotic and Lonely Time” to those in our church and community. Thank you for your past and continual prayers and financial support to Grace and your community.
Listen to the bells being rung, God’s promise of peace, hope, and salvation breaking into the world, even in the midst of suffering.
