Update on New Book of Worship

The good news is that we're being told that our copies of the pew edition of Evangelical Lutheran Worship should ship to us soon. That bad news is that there has been a delay in shipping the accompaniment editions of ELW. Evidently, there was a problem with the binding from the first printing of the accompaniment editions, so Augsburg Fortress had to return them to be redone. We won't begin using the pew copies until we at least obtain a copy of the accompaniment edition for the liturgy. Hopefully, it will arrive in time for the season of Ephiphany or at least for Lent.

So far, we have received donations for 170 copies of the pew edition. The congregation has purchased 450 copies, so we have a way to go. If you would like donate one or more copies in honor or memory of a friend, loved one, or anyone who has been a part of your faith journey, contact the church office. The cost is $17.50 each, because we pre-ordered. (Copies ordered today are $20.00.)
