We are now in a period of patience and hope as it relates to our Pastoral call.  We have
completed all that we can do at this time and await the Synod to identify potential
candidates for us to interview.
As we await the good word, let me remind you about the character of All Saints
Lutheran Church: 
“All Saints Lutheran Church is one of the most welcoming and family oriented
churches in the community. Our church membership serves with kind hearts and
enthusiasm to serve the Lord is second to none.  We are passionate about helping
families in need through our food bank and meals on wheels as well as being a
Reconciled in Christ (RIC) congregation, open to all God’s children regardless of their
sexual orientation, race or disabilities.  We are a hopeful congregation, trusting in the
Lord to continue to guide us and bless us through his generosity; blessings we each use
to serve and witness our calling to GOD."
We know without a doubt that there is a Pastor worthy of our congregation in as much
as we are worthy of our new Pastor.  We are strongest together, continuing to do God’s
work within the congregation and our community at large. 
I’d like to close with two bible passages.
Galatians 5:22-23 – “(22) But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance,
kindness, goodness, faithfulness, (23) gentleness and self-control.  Against such things
there is no law.”
Colossians 3:12-13 – “(12) Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved,
clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.  (13)
Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against
someone.  Forgive as the Lord forgave you.”

In Christ,
