Graduate Recognition Sunday

We had a wide variety of graduates to recognize last Sunday. Congratulations to all who are graduating this year.

The ELCA asks us to provide a list of high school graduates every year so ELCA campus pastors can be informed of which Lutherans are coming to their respective campuses. Apparently no one at First Lutheran has been keeping up with our youth and reporting new college students every year. Would you like to assume this responsibility? I cannot assume such responsibility since I do not know if I will be around next year.
