June 26 – Third Sunday after Pentecost

The Divine Service for the Third Sunday after Pentecost (June 26, 2022)

“Following Jesus” – Luke 9:51-62

Discipleship is the task of the Christian to give up the things of selfishness and wickedness in this world in order to live a holy life dedicated to God. But this is never easy. It is hard and scary at times. But our Lord does not let us do this alone. He is the perfect disciple that follows the will of God to save us. It costs Him His life on the cross, but His resurrection proves that discipleship is totally worth it. So, let us follow Jesus through this life as He leads us to everlasting life in heaven.

June 19 – Second Sunday after Pentecost

The Divine Service for the Second Sunday after Pentecost (June 19, 2022)

“Jesus Comes to Save” – Luke 8:26-39

Jesus encounters a multi-demon possessed man and saves him in body, soul, and spirit, returning him to his right mind and back to civilization and gave him saving faith to know Jesus as his Savior. Where we give up, God does not for He desires all people to be saved. Sadly, fear of losing the things of this world, fearing evil (spirits, people, events, etc.), cripples our lives. Thanks be to God that Jesus still breaks the darkness to save us!

June 12 – Holy Trinity Sunday

The Divine Service for The Holy Trinity Sunday (June 12, 2022)

“Two Mysteries in One I AM” – John 8:48-59

This service is in praise to God for who He is that leads to what He does for us and all of fallen creation. The name of God is the focus of this day of the Holy Trinity – three persons (Father, Son, Holy Spirit), yet one God. The Divine name of “I AM” that Jesus speaks is the revelation of the Son who is one with the Father and the Holy Spirit. It’s a mystery that can only be grasped by faith. May God give you such faith to know Him and all that He does through the love of the Holy Trinity!

June 5 – The Ordination of PJ Aarsvold

The Service of the Rite of Ordination into the Office of the Holy Ministry for Paul “PJ” Aarsvold. Immanuel Lutheran Church humbly invites you to celebrate this special day in the life of the Church. From the Lutheran Service Book Agenda on the Rite of Ordination:

The Office of the Holy Ministry has been instituted by Christ Himself as a gift of His Church. Through the Christian congregation, as the holder of all churchly authority, God calls qualified men to fill this divinely established office and sends them as His ministers to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to administer the Sacraments publicly in the stead of Christ and by His command, with accountability both to God and to the Church. According to apostolic usage, ordination is the solemn, public confirmation of that call. (page 155)

May God bless PJ’s ministry as he tends to the Lord’s lambs and sheep!

June 5 – The Day of Pentecost

The Divine Service for the Feast of Pentecost (June 5, 2022)

“The Holy Spirit – The Helper” – John 14:23-21

Pentecost was an Old Testament feast that celebrated the first fruits of the spring harvest. God’s people were required by His Law to observe this feast by offering sacrifices at the temple in Jerusalem fifty days after the other required feast of Passover. This brings God-fearing Jews together where God now ushers in the New Testament Pentecost, where the Holy Spirit comes upon the disciples to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the people. This same Spirit still descends upon people today in languages they understand to help them to know Jesus as our Lord and Savior.
