God is Good!

Hey Everyone,

I had a wonderful vacation. Thanks for allowing me the time off to recharge and replenish!

As always God's ministry is alive!

So I need to share some things with you so that we are all on the same page: First, The Milwaukee Federation of WELS Churches, at their delegate meeting this last Sunday, voted to transfer the title and the mortgage over to The Point of Grace Ev. Luth. Church. That is really exciting because it prevents us from having to re-buy the building. While it is a rather daunting task to assume the title and mortgage, the truth is, God has been providing the funds necessary to pay for the mortgage through people like you, the bargain centers, the Antioch Foundation, WELS Kingdom Workers, and other generous people, for the past 18 months. To God, and I mean to God, alone be the glory!

We had a congregation meeting this past Sunday as well. For the many who were able to attend: Thanks for your attendance! Highlights of this meeting will soon be posted either on the web or on the bulletin board at church or both soon!

Yesterday was a great day! The east side got a little bit more busy! Parking spaces became a little bit harder to get! Why? Because a lot of the students started to move in!

I had a great time last night at the ESL training workshop. It was cool to learn about different cultures and about how Jesus reaches out to us all!

This weekend I will be giving the message at Divinity-Divine Charity in Whitefish Bay. I ask that you pray for God to bless his Word among our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ.

Dan Tomczyk will be giving the message at The Point. Dan has a great heart and great love for God and his Word. This will be great. Invite your friends.

Thanks to Marques Nelson for stepping up to the plate and delivering the home run of God's Word and Sacrament while I was on vacation. Keep up the God work, Marques.

A few more things for now: Going forward I will be taking Monday mornings and afternoons off. If you have an emergency during that time - call me! Thanks.

And thanks for your ministry in the name of Jesus!

Have a great day and week with Jesus!

Bill
