Join us for three Saturdays in February: 3rd, 10th, and 17th; for the Shepherding Our Flock Workshop Series taking place in the Luther Building.
This LCMS program seeks to answer the question – How can our church minister to members who have become less active in our church? It will provide us with practical processes and useful tools to reach out to inactive members with care and attention.
Church attendance was affected adversely by Covid-19, and has been a challenge for churches all across our nation. But fortunately, LCMS has developed valuable resources that can help us address this issue at First Lutheran Church. There is no cost to participate, and the three sessions will take place from 11 a.m. until 2:30 p.m., with lunch provided.
This promises to be a very informative workshop, so be sure to put it on your calendar and let the church know you are coming by clicking the Contact Us button below, so Pastor Bacic can plan accordingly: pastorbacic062809@gmail.com, 501-410-2944. We look forward to seeing you there.
On Sunday, November 5th, LWML will be joining with the Fellowship committee to serve the annual Turkey dinner immediately following the worship service.
A traditional Thanksgiving meal will be served:
Turkey
Cornbread Dressing
Mashed Potatoes and Gravy
Sweet Potato Casserole
Assortment of Pies
This event is free and members and guests are welcome. Any free-will offerings will be donated to a church ministry (to be determined).
Join us Saturday, October 21st for the Celebrate Your Gifts Workshop in the Luther Building and hosted by the Board of Evangelism. There will be an informal lunch at 12:30 p.m., the workshop will start at 1 p.m. and adjourn no later than 3 p.m.
God has equipped each of us with gifts, talents, and abilities, and set forth work for us to do. And yet only:
54% of practicing Christians know their gifts, and only
27% are actively using those gifts to perform the work He has set before us, for the joy of the Lord.
Using resources from Lutheran Hour Ministries based on research done with the Barna Group, we will explore how to discover and use our gifts to carry out the work He has set before us.
This promises to be a very informative workshop, so be sure to put it on your calendar and let the church know you are coming by clicking the Contact Us button below, so Pastor Bacic can plan accordingly: pastorbacic062809@gmail.com, 501-410-2944. We look forward to seeing you there.
First Lutheran Church of Little Rock cordially invites you to the celebration of the 506th anniversary of the Reformation on October 29th, 2023!
Service will begin at 3 p.m. with Pastor Vandercook delivering the sermon. Following the service, a German meal will be served. Music and refreshments are included to enhance this time-honored celebration.
The increasing cost of food and need for healthy meals is becoming a huge issue for many people at this time. So we are delighted to announce that a workshop on this topic is set for Wednesday, September 6, from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. in the Luther Building at First Lutheran Church, 8th and Rock Street in Little Rock.
Our guest presenter is Ms. Laura Anne Warren, a Family and Consumer Science Agent from the Pulaski County Extension Office with expertise in the areas of nutrition, cooking and gardening. She will be providing a cooking demonstration as well as key insights on how to create healthy, low-cost meals and reduce food costs, an important issue that emerged in our recent survey of the congregation.
