Resurrection Lutheran -– Where are we Going?Planting Seeds for the Future!

Gospel of MarkChapter 4…

Still others, like seed sown among thorns, hear the word; but the worries

of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth

and the desires for other things come in and choke

the word, making it unfruitful. Others, like

seed sown on good soil, hear the word, accept it,

and produce a crop--thirty, sixty or even a

hundred times what was sown."

Our Mission

“For all to know the

unconditional love of God;

grow in relationship with Jesus, others, and

self; and share this love

through word and deed.”
