Emanuel Lutheran Tiger Talk

  Children aged 3 to sixth grade and their parents are invited to join in a procession with palm branches at the start of our 10:30 AM worship service on Palm Sunday. We'll walk into church waving our palms and then the Sunday School children will share a special song of praise. If you'd like your child to participate, please make sure they attend Sunday School over the next few weeks to learn the song (9:15 AM in the Commons). All children will be given a palm branch to take home! Hosanna to the King!

Do you remember your children's first words? Many times it's "mama" or "dada." Sometimes it's "dog" if you happen to have one of those roaming your house. "No" can also make an appearance fairly quickly. Once those first words come out of their mouths, verbal communication is constant. Even before those first words though, your children likely communicated their displeasure in a unique way that may not have ever changed, even if they are in 8th grade now: whining.  There may not be a more grating sound on parents' ears than a child's incessant whining. Infants whine when they are hungry or upset. Toddlers whine when parents stop them from doing things that could cause them harm, because of course that's what they want to do. Preschoolers whine when they don't get their way. Elementary school students whine about things that "aren't fair." Middle-schoolers whine about...all of those things. Human beings, w...

"The Lutheran Women's Missionary Society (LWMS) of Emanuel Lutheran Church in New London, WI recently sewed 61 dresses for the young girls, ages infant to teens, in Zambia and Malawi, Africa. These countries are part of the Central Africa Medical Missions or CAMM.  There were many volunteers who helped with this project from beginning to end, including Heather Sulzle and her 59 art class students. Her students made yarn/plastic canvas crosses so that each dress had a cross in its pocket to remind each young girl of their Savior’s love for them. The project started with many donations of fabric, lace, bias tape, elastic, and thread. We had a workday to cut the fabric and other items to size. A ‘kit’ was then made for each dress and placed into a Ziploc bag along with directions. Many volunteers and LWMS members took kits home to sew and in a very short time, they were all sewn. Some women enjoyed it so much they came back to get even more kits to sew!  Everyone remarked how cut...

  This Sunday at 9:15am between church services we will be holding another open forum to discuss the details of the Emanuel renovation project.  Even back at the time of Jesus, a "forum" was a place where people would gather to share ideas and exchange information, which is why we see all forums are vital, not just to a project, but to our whole ministry effort as a church. We hope many attend so that everyone's voices are heard as we continue to plan for our church now and for generations to come. We'll see you Sunday!

Time   Jesus LOVES the little children!  This is a great message that we all need to hear.  It is good for the children to know that Jesus loved children and had time for them.  As grown-ups it is good for us to remember that we should love our children as Jesus did and have time for them.  It is very easy to be too busy, but this action from...
