Welcome Back!
WE SAVED YOU A SEAT!
August 1 and August 8
– Tera Elness
8:30 Traditional Worship, 10:30 Contemporary Worship
Tera is a wife, mama, (soon-to-be-grandma!), coffee addict, writer, and speaker. She serves as the Christian Education Coordinator at her home church, American Lutheran in Windom, and also works part-time as a Fitness Specialist in the Wellness Department of Windom Area Health.
Much like her friends the Israelites, Tera wandered the
desert for nearly 40 years in search of life-giving refreshment. Upon discovering the oasis of grace, her thirsty heart was filled and dry spirit quenched as she set out on her own personal journey of walking in faith and living her (His) story.
Tera is passionate about reading and sharing God’s Word, relating it to our world and lives today, revealing just how very alive, active, and relevant it truly is. She does so through speaking events, sermons, conferences, retreats, personal one-to-ones, her social media outlets, and more often than not, over a great cup ‘o joe.
You can find Tera on Facebook at Tera’s Online Christian Journey and on Instagram @terajean.
Services are also LIVE on FACEBOOK!

CHILDREN’S CHURCH!
COMING SOON ON SUNDAY MORNINGS
Christian Education programing will begin this fall for kids Ages 3 through High School. Details coming soon!
WONDERFUL WEDNESDAYS
Our Wonderful Wednesday programming will resume Fall 2021
Check back here and on our FACEBOOK page for updates.
Fall marks the start to our programming here at church. This year, we have refreshed and recharged and rethought how to better share the love of Christ within all the things we do. Sure, we are striving to be a great place to attend church and to attract more people to SLUMC.
But more, we are striving to make Christ the center so he is the attraction and others will come to know him better.
These are some of the questions we asked ourselves:
How do our youngest members best learn about Jesus? What are ways we can minister to families amidst their busy lives? What needs do seniors have as they navigate this crazy society in which we live? How do we reach the lonely and those who don’t or can’t come to church? How can we arm our teens to stand strong for Christ and resist the pressures around them?
Teams, committees and a Task Force have met to see how our programs address the questions. We’ve strengthened some existing teams and committees and sharpened a focus within Hospitality, Health and Welfare, the Funeral Service Group and Education. Check out our August Newsletter under the Resources & ENews tabs for examples of changes you will see this Fall!
Renewal Leave Scheduled:
A reminder that Pastor Vicki will be on renewal leave July 12-August 10.
Special speakers are lined up to cover Sunday worship and neighboring clergy will cover parish emergencies.
Needing a hospital visit while Vicki is gone? Call Tammy or the Church Office.
