The glory of the Lord is revealed in the reading of scripture. People stand at attention. People weep. People prostrate themselves in prayer. The unity of the church is another reflection of the glory of God. Most gloriously, the promises of God are fulfilled in the person of Jesus Christ. Gather round. Listen up. Glimpse the glory of God. Please welcome back Licensed Lay Minister Paul Archer who will be leading Worship today.

The glory of God is often revealed when and where it is least expected. God uses our lips to declare that glory, inexperienced and hesitant though they may be. God uses our love to demonstrate that glory and so urges us to exercise it. God uses Jesus of Nazareth, water and the word, bread and wine, to reveal God’s glory where and when God chooses. Take heed, lest the glory of God slip through our midst unnoticed. We thank LLM Paul Archer for leading Worship today.

The Mexican Fiesta and Family Game night is always a fun evening and a great way to support Habitat for Humanity of Oakland County. Reservations are VERY appreciated in order to plan for the Mexican buffet. There is a sign up sheet in the narthex. There is no specific charge but donations (checks to Abiding Presence or cash) are welcome. Who will crack the pinata this year? Bring board or floor games AND friends. Gracias!

Letizia (Letty) Lydia Majorana Lind was born in Toronto, Canada on May 6, 1923. She passed away on October 31, 2018. She was predeceased by her husband Richards (Dick) in 2010. She is survived by her four children.
Her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren are:
Christine (Robert) Hage with grandson Paul (Betsey) Hage and great-grandson Joshua; grandson Andrew (Kathy) Hage and great-grandson Jacob.
Caroline (Richard [deceased]) Stern with granddaughter Christa (Brad) Lubahn and great-grandsons Mason and Jack; grandson Paul (Heidi) Stern and great-granddaughters Kylie and Alivia; and granddaughter Myra stern.
Richard (Anne Marie) Lind with grandchildren Alexander and Angelique.
Catherine (Larry) Montsinger with granddaughter Liana (Scottie) Talaski and great-granddaughter Esther; and grandson Luke (Lorianne) Montsinger.
The church was a very important part of Letty’s life. She met Dick at a Luther League event at Truth Lutheran Church. They married in 1947 and she gained her citizenship as a war bride, even though she was raised in Hazel Park, MI. A stay at home mother, Letty sewed all the clothing for herself and daughters. She cooked three meals a day for the six-member family for over 25 years. She was the quintessential homemaker.
Once her children left home she threw herself into volunteerism. She sewed for Lutheran Social Services for decades making baby layettes, Alzheimer activity aprons, and quilts. She did book mending in libraries and visited patients at the state mental hospital in Pontiac.
She worked to help others, but first and foremost she was dedicated to her family.

The fifth Sunday after Epiphany continues to highlight unlikely instruments and circumstances appointed to reveal the glory of the Lord. “Who will go for us?” queries the voice of the Lord. A man of unclean lips, a former persecutor of the church of God, and three fishermen who couldn’t catch a thing. More surprising still, perhaps, is the fact that we are also called. We thank LLM Paul Archer for leading Worship again today.

Blessings and curses abound on the sixth Sunday after Epiphany. We would do well to listen closely to whom the “blessed ares” and the “woe tos” are directed and to find our place in the crowd among those who desire to touch Jesus. The risen Christ stands among us in the mystery of the holy supper with an invitation to live in him and the power to heal us all. Please welcome Bishop Donald Kreiss who will be leading worship today.
