Thank You - Lydia Schultz
"Dear St Paul Family,
Thank you so much for the support and prayers you have shown me over the last several years while I was at college. It is always a blessing to come home and be back in my home congregation. I have accepted a position in Spirit Lake, Iowa where I will be working at Camp Okoboji (an LCMS camp) as a Discipleship coordinator from June to end of August. Then I will be working at Immanuel Lutheran Church in Spirit Lake as the Youth Director. I am excited for the new opportunities ahead of me! Thank you again for all of the support. St Paul has helped make me who I am and I am very thankful for that. -Lydia Schultz"
Thank You - Lisa Stanley
"Dear St. Paul Family,
Thank you for inviting me into your families for the past 24 years. I love you very much and wish you nothing but the best. Thank you for all the support, love, and help. There are so many people who have made desserts, helped at the Poland dinners, or even given treats or money, I truly appreciate every thing and so do the people in Poland. You all will hold a special place in my heart. Thank you! May God bless you all. Love Lisa Stanley."

Stewardship - An Act of Faith
Mark 4:34 – “He did not speak to them without a parable, but privately to his own disciples he explained everything.” How blessed we are to be His disciples! The Lord has indeed explained everything to us. He has told us all things plainly. Why then are we ever so foolish as to disobey His clear Word? Our fight against sin in the power of the Holy Spirit is truly a struggle. Therefore, let us receive the Lord’s help in His Word and Sacraments — and let us fight the good fight of faith and grow up into His image.
