Saturday Evening Worship - 5:30 pm Each Week
Saturday Evening Worship 2007 Photos
We have expanded our worship
opportunities at Our Saviour through the addition of a new service. This
service continues to grow as all learn and enjoy this new opportunity to
worship in a casual and more contemporary style. This service is
something Lutherans and others can connect with, but it will include a
less formal worship style than our traditional Sunday morning services.
Saturday night worship services began last November at OSLC. So far
the response has been very good with attendance now averaging 80+ people
per service. Come and add your voice to our worship and bring a friend
who hasn’t been attending worship. Tell your friends, co-workers,
neighbors, and family members who don’t have a church home about all our
opportunities for worship, growing in faith, serving others, and sharing
of God’s love in and through Our Saviour’s congregation. Through us and
other Christians, God is restoring ALL THINGS to God in Christ. Faith
Growth for Children K-5th grade on Saturdays at 4:30pm started in
January! This every week education time is where kids get in the Bible
and the Bible gets into kids. Every week, kids explore God’s Word in
large groups and small groups. Worship and prayer are the responses to
what they’ve learned. This time is intended to help kids build deep and
lasting friendships with God through the Bible. There will be no
education for children on Saturday, March 22nd!
