The sprinkling rains did not deter the spirits of the Redeemer Family and friends on Sunday, May 17th as they gathered at Hunsucker Park to worship in the presence and beauty of God's gift of nature.
The 120 present cuddled and buddled together seeking shelter from the rain as they sang His praises and enjoyed an a very uplifting worship. Joe Midkiff provided our muscial accompaniment with his guitar and Kelly Matthews provided sound to enhance our worship in the park. Joe led us in such beautiful hymns as "Great is Thy Faithfulness, What a Friend We Have in Jesus, and Go My Children With My Blessing." Pastor Alms provided his message based on the Gospel from St. John 15:9-17 to love each other.
Our devoted Lutheran Laymen's League cooked hot dogs and hamburgers with all the fixins beneath a shelter just down from the park. The meal was delicious! The Lutheran Women's Missionary League took advantage of the day to hold a meeting to finalize plans for their June 7th Salad Luncheon. The children were not able to enjoy the blow-up slide that was planned, but enjoyed the dry shelter and crafts provided by Maria Bratt & Connie Wesson.
