service. Children‟s bulletins, for ages 3-6 and 7-12, can be found in the Narthex.
NURSERY HELPERS – Jr. and Sr. youth are asked to volunteer to work in the nursery with an adult supervisor and play
with the 1-4 year olds during the 9:15 service. If you acolyte at the early or late service, stop by around 9am and ask if
help is needed. All Jr and Sr high youth are encouraged to help. Contact Mike (337-0940 or charles5832@sbcglobal.net).

for the 2010-11 school year--MWF (8:30-11:30) for 4/5-year-olds--T-TH (8:30-10:30 or 12:30-2:30) for 3-year-olds.

„EXPELLED‟ BIBLE STUDY – Paul Steinhaus, science teacher at NEWLHS, will be here to lead a Bible study
regarding the freedom of speech and inquiry within the scientific community as it relates to Biblical authority. The
discussion will be centered around Ben Stein's recent movie "Expelled." The movie will be viewed for the first 3 weeks.
The discussion will then conclude the fourth week with an example of this freedom revolving around the "hot" topic of
global warming. This discussion is geared toward adults however high school youth are strongly encouraged to come and
join in. This study will be held in our parlor Sundays at 9:30 and 10:30 am on April 11, 18, 25 and May 2.
PORTALS OF PRAYER – The new April-June issue is in the Narthex. Pick up yours today. Large print in the office.

APRIL 5 IS ANOTHER SWEET MONDAY! –This time we're focusing on spring cleaning. We will be taking tips
about how to clean each room of the house. This is not led by a cleaning expert, so we need the sweet ladies who attend to
bring ideas about how to clean, cleaning products, recipes for cleaning products, etc. Bring whatever ideas you use or can
find by April 5. See you at 7:00pm in the parlor!
FAITH BUILDER/ADULT CONFIRMATION CLASS RETURNS – Our Faith Builder/Adult Confirmation classes

you are interested in attending by calling Michelle in the office at 468-4065.
IT‟S SOFTBALL TIME – Softball... green grass, blue skies, the crack of the bat and cheers of the crowd. Makes me feel
warmer already. Once again, I would like to try to field two teams, our regular Division 1 team as well as a Division 3
team (for those who don't like the competitive nature of the upper division). Please let me know if you are interested in
playing so that I can arrange with the league to add the second team (if there is enough interest). Contact Steve or Julie
Rusch at 406-9077 or email us at ruschs@sbcglobal.net or sign up on the sheet across from the office. We look forward to
another year of fun and fellowship with you. Thanks - Coach Dash
RUMMAGE SALE DONATIONS NEEDED – Can‟t wait to get to your spring cleaning done and get that stuff out of
your way? Bring your donations to the church office. The „Kids‟ Only‟ sale is on May 15; donations are requested by May
9. The Super Sale date is August 21; we take the kitchen sink and lots of other items but no clothes, please. For the „Kids
Only‟ sale, donations (we DO take CLOTHES for this one) can also be brought to the nursery on Sunday mornings.
LADIES LUNCHEON PLANNED FOR MAY 1st – The Evangelism and Fellowship Boards of OSLC have teamed up
to bring you the 2nd Annual Ladies‟ Luncheon. Our speaker for this special event is Jennifer Grogh. Doors open at
11:30am. The cost is $12 per person; reservations are needed by April 22. Please stop by the office or mail your
check with the names of those who will be attending. Invite your mom, sisters, nieces, etc. and plan to have a grand time!
ATTN: ALL VOLUNTEERS – All Servant/Volunteer Sunday will be held on May 16th at 10:30am. You are invited to
bring your best potluck dish and join us in honoring those that keep OSLC running by donating their time and talents. The
regular 10:45 am worship service will not be held that day so that everyone can come and enjoy this fellowship event.
CONSIDER „SIMPLY GIVING‟ – This Easter season, Our Saviour thanks those individuals and families that support
the church throughout the year with their time, talent and financial contributions. We also extend a warm welcome to
many new and returning congregation members and hope that you, too, will be generous with your time and contributions
in support of our work here at Our Saviour. To assist everyone in making the consistent offerings that are so important to
Our Saviour, we ask you to consider making automatic, electronic donations through the Simply Giving program. Please
contact the church office (468-4065 or info@oslc-gb.org) for more details.
RAISE YOUR VOICE – Do you receive a copy of The Voice each month by snail mail? Would you prefer to receive it
by email or just read it online? To change the way you receive The Voice, please call or email Michelle at 468-4065 or
info@oslc-gb.org. Please also notify the office when your mailing address, email address or phone numbers change.
SERVE OTHERS IN YOUR OWN WAY – All women members of Our Saviour are encouraged to attend the next
LWML (Lutheran Women's Missionary League) meeting on Monday, April 12, at 7:00 p.m. in the parlor. We are just
getting started, so this is the perfect time to jump in and try us out. Our main objective is reaching out to others. How do
we do that? It's really up to you! If you've always wanted to help serve at a homeless shelter, you can. If you prefer to
send care packages to missionaries overseas, go for it! You serve how you want. The group helps come up with
opportunities and supports one another in missions. (Our invitation to join Christ of the Bay is for later this spring. More
information coming.) Questions? Ask Stephenie: 264-8317 or stephhov@hotmail.com
HEAR YE, HEAR YE – Imagine a place that connects a member's needs, interests, talents, and passions. The Board of
Stewardship is developing such a place. To start it off, they are inviting every member to complete a fun and creative
inventory (survey). The information will be used within the congregation only, to allow members to use their gifts for the
Lord‟s work. This inventory will be available at the Olan Mills picture taking sessions, and thereafter from the church
office and Welcome Center.
LIFE QUOTE – “You are valuable to God because He made you and He loved what He made so much that He was
conceived in a womb, born in a stable, suffered on a cross, buried in a tomb. Then He rose again to say „Yes‟ to it all, to
say „Yes‟ to you, to give you His victory over death and the grave. That‟s love!” Rev. Dr. James I. Lamb, executive director of
Lutherans for Life This “Life Quote” is from Lutherans for Life - www.lutheransforlife.org
