Beginning December 2, 2012 we will be adding an 8am service. This will not affect times for our 9:15 Sunday School or our 10:30am service, so we are expecting it to fit in nicely with what we already offer here at Peace. As of right now the decision has been made to give this new service time several months of life and evaluate how it fits into worship life together around Easter. Please let us know by voting with your presence.

Holiday Trains, decorated with thousands of Christmas lights, runs in partnership with the Canadian Association of Food Banks (CAFB) and U.S. food shelves and pantries associated with local communities, neighborhood services and organizations such as the Second Harvest Heartland and the Emergency Food Shelf Network to raise donations and awareness for the issue of hunger. The Holiday Train program allows employees, customers and communities to come together to help people in need. The Holiday Train is scheduled to be at the Elbow Lake Main Street railroad crossing from 4:305:30pm on Saturday, December 15th. Remember to dress warmly and bundle up the little ones in snowsuits, mittens and caps. This is an opportunity for the Grant County residents to enjoy a good show and make donations of food and money to the local Food Shelf. Gifts to the Food Shelf are tax deductible, and donations made by check are easily documented for the IRS.
Through our shared ministry with Lutheran Camps and Campuses in our area, the lives of Youth and Young Adults, are being changed for the better.
Luther Crests 2012 theme of HOPE reminded both campers and staff to be patient in trouble, and keep on praying. Luther Crest grounds itself in the power of Christ who is our HOPE in all Situations at all times. Our summer consisted of over 850 youth and adults hearing, tasting, seeing, feeling and smelling Gods love in many different ways. Jennifer was a new camper to Luther Crest. It was her first time away from home. Her mom said she had jitters about being away in an unfamiliar place. Despite these obstacles, Jennifer gave it her all. She go to know her fellow cabin mates and her counselor. Because of the support and prayers you provide, Jennifer was able to overcome her fears and experienced camp to the fullest Being welcomed with love, care, guidance, forgiveness and 120 total hours of Christ immersion at Luther Crest gave Jennifer the experience which taught her about who Jesus is in her life and age her the confidence to grow in her faith. Stories of HOPE happen all the time at Luther Crest. We know and tell the story that Jesus is the HOPE that drives us to love one another. Stories and lives like this are a regular part of the ministry to the next generation of Christians from throughout our area, and are an important part of our Churchs future. As the Bible Camps, and Campus Ministries of your area we ask that, as you feel called, you support, through prayers, volunteering, and of course financial gifts these ministries and others doing Gods work on your behalf in the lives of young people.

home with your family. Lighting an advent wreath, reading a scripture, saying the prayer of the week, opening an Advent calendar, putting aside an offering for those in need, is a simple and rewarding time for keeping clear what Advent and Christmas are all about. Even when there are no children to sit with us at the table or sing an advent hymn with us, such small rituals are still wonderfully meaningful. They have a marvelous way of keeping our attention focused on those things which really matter.
