A Congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America
We are joining thousands of congregations in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America for this day of service to our community. God does the work — but God uses our hands to get it done! And we find peace and fellowship as we serve our neighbor. Click here for more information.
Even Jesus needed a break. He seems out of character in today’s reading from Mark when he talks to the non-Jewish woman who asks for healing for her daughter. We read that Jesus was trying to get away from the crowds. Could he be tired? God’s own Son – worn out, burned out, needing a […]
Say NO to racism! Fifty years after civil rights activists marched in Selma, Ala., people of color still face racism and violence – even during swimming pool parties and Bible study sessions. Everyone interested in what we can do in Nevada County to end racism is invited to a series of workshops starting at 9:15 […]
Feel like something’s missing? Jesus promises that, when you walk his Path, you’ll never be hungry again. What’s really amazing? The more you let Jesus feed you, the more you find that this world’s bread – the material things we think we’re hungry for – isn’t what fills you up. Eat with us here at […]
“Welcome, Pastor Eileen!” Are you hungry? Food – physical and spiritual – comes to us from God’s abundant and lavish hands. Today’s Gospel reading likens Jesus, God’s Anointed One, to the manna that God miraculously sent to the nomadic Israelites each morning during the 40 years they wandered in the wilderness. Come to worship, where […]

Even after the Affordable Care Act, many people still cannot afford to pay for health care services. California Care Force is a nonprofit organization providing free mobile clinics for health, dental and vision care. California Care Force also is receiving financial support from PEACE Lutheran Church. On Sunday, July 19, a temple talk will be […]
“Herd or Flock?” The Bible uses a lot of imagery involving sheep and shepherds, and we hear some of that today: Poor shepherds let the flock get scattered. Good shepherds lead and heal. THE Good Shepherd will lead with wisdom and justice, and will put an end to fear. Christians believe Jesus – God’s Good […]
Get blessed! When we believe in Jesus as the Son of God, God adopts us as his own children – He chooses us! Then, as God’s children, God lavishes upon us “every spiritual blessing,” St. Paul writes. One of the gifts we receive is the power of the Holy Spirit, who helps us follow the model of […]
