Possible New Teams Developing
Worship Design Team
Greeter/Usher/Radical Hospitality Team
Is God nudging you to be part of a team that helps to design worship and/or welcome with a radical hospitality?
As we continue to grow in our love of God and neighbor, we continue to seek opportunities to care for people who are here, while reaching beyond the walls and strengthening relationships with those who might not yet experience the life-freeing power of a relationship with Jesus.
I'd like to invite you to pray about the possibility of developing these teams as we continue to grow and move forward.

Worship
Humble Boldness
On one hand, humble boldness can seem like paradoxical words.
On the other hand, from a perspective of faith, faithful humility can lead to an unwavering boldness.
This week in worship we'll consider these words as they interact together.
I look forward to worshiping together this weekend!

Prayer Names
As people of faith we pray.
Every week, we have dozens of names and circumstances identified for prayer.
As we continually monitor this, we continue to evaluate how we best communicate prayer concerns and wishes in a respectful, faithful manner.

In the Hospital
We are intentional about checking the hospital roster every weekday. Even so, please do not hesitate to let us know if you or someone you care about is in the hospital, or has a hospital event scheduled. We don't always find out about a hospitalization, and sometimes we only find out after the fact. The church's number is 701-838-4425. Please know we appreciate knowing you are in the hospital.
The church phone is answered from 8 am to noon and 1 - 5 pm Monday through Friday. If a message is left at the church, we seek to return the call in a timely manner. If a message is left outside of office hours the call will likely not be returned until the following day or Monday.
My cell # is: 701-500-6773.
We try to have this covered all the time. If you call or text, a message will be returned in a timely manner.

Building Maintenance Updates
Heating and Cooling: Johnson Controls has started preparing for their work to modernize our internal heating and cooling systems.
Through this process, we anticipate:
1) Gaining some control over the sanctuary temperature, and
2) Updating the electronics in the system so questions can more likely be addressed and solved.
Water Mitigation: We have had people on the roof, in the sanctuary, and in the basement working to develop a reasonable, faithful plan of action to mitigate the water issues that have surfaced.
