Easter flower orders
We are already anticipating the resurrection of our Lord on Easter Sunday! If you would like to help decorate the sanctuary for Easter with the purchase of Easter flowers, please place your order by March 15. You can do so by filling out the online form here or by picking up an order form at the Welcome Center. Flowers can be taken home following Easter worship on March 31.

Milestones
At her confirmation, Jane Povich publicly confessed the faith into which she was baptized. Jane chose as her confirmation verse, “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own” (Matthew 6:34). Jane serves her Savior in many ways, but in the ministry of her church, she helps teach 4K and kindergarten students about Jesus in Plugged Into Jesus.

LWMS Convention June 27 – 30

Monthly Mission Partner
This summer, teens and adults will go on mission trips to several different locations to help spread the gospel of Jesus. Not everyone will go on a mission trip, but you can still support them with prayers, encouragement, and offerings. Both the host congregations of mission trips and the participants themselves have always appreciated St. Andrew’s support.
