News / Announcements / Upcoming Events:
Sunday School wouldn’t be a success without our volunteers! We are looking for people to help with specific projects (helping with activities, being that extra set of hands in a classroom, helping with memory work, taking attendance, etc), please contact Stacy Knudson, Pastor Chris, or the church office – or stop in the office on Sunday morning to sign up. We can always use a spare pair of hands!
With classes from pre-kindergarten to eighth grade, Grace Lutheran School is a wonderful option for Christ-centered education. As part of its mission, BSLC offers tuition remission for GLS.
If you would like to apply for GLS tuition assistance for the 2024-2025 school year, please fill out an application form and return it to the church by April 15. If you have any questions about the application form or about our policy, please call Pastor Chris at the church office at 293-1047 or his cell at (701) 893-6995.
The LWML invites you to save your used postage stamps (yes, the stamps that come on your incoming mail every day). Just tear off the corner of the envelope, keeping the whole stamp in tack with at least a 1/4 inch border around it. Place these used stamps in the appropriate drawer of the plastic drawer cabinet that is located next to the LWML kiosk. These stamps are actually sold at auctions to collectors and bring in cash for the LWML Mites program.
There is a sign-up sheet in the narthex to sign up to bring two dozen treats, serve and/or cleanup on Sunday mornings. You can choose which Sunday works best for you. If you have questions, please contact the church office.
Please let the church office know when you plan to leave for the winter so that you will still receive any correspondence from the church. The church has to pay the post office 63 cents for each piece of mail returned. You can also let the church know if you would like the e-mail version of the newsletter while you are out of town. Thank you for keeping the church updated while you travel!
Beautiful Savior Apparel: (Available in Church Office)
There are spare t-shirts, Polo Shirts and half-zip long-sleeve shirts available in the church office for purchase. Sizes are limited for the ones in the office. But, you can purchase and take yours home today if you find the one that fits. T-shirts are $15.00 and the other items are priced.
Wittenberg Lutheran Chapel is an LCMS campus ministry serving students at UND. Their current organ is falling into disrepair and needs to be replaced. They are hoping to replace their current pipe organ with a digital organ, reducing overall maintenance costs. They aim to raise $100,000 by fall of 2024, hoping to dedicate it at their 60th anniversary celebration. You can partner with them by donating an organ key: 70 white keys: $100-500 each; 50 black keys: $501-1000 each; and 25 pedal keys: $1001+ each. Gifts designated “Wittenberg Organ” may be sent to ND District LCMS, Box 9029, Fargo, ND 58106-9029. Click here for more information.
The food pantry at Beautiful Savior could use a few items: canned tuna, canned fruit, rice or potato packets and canned soup. If you are able to help with these needed items, you may drop them off in the collection container in the narthex. Thank you so much for helping restock our shelves.
Do we have your current phone number, email and mailing address? If you have moved, got rid of your landline/old phone number or have a new email address, please let us know.
The Sunday school children will be singing with the Choir at either the 8:15 or 10:45 am worship service on Sunday, April 7. The children’s chorus is in the song Christ is Risen (from “The Beautiful Christ” b Fieldes, Maher and Sorenson) if you want to look it up and listen to it. Please have your child(ren) here by 8:00 am that morning for them to rehearse and to line up. After they are done singing, they will sit with their parents for the worship service.
Beautiful Savior will welcome the newer members of our congregation during both worship services on Sunday, April 14. There will be fellowship and cupcakes between services. Please introduce yourself and welcome our new members. If you would like to join Beautiful Savior, please call the office to find out what steps to take. We would love to have you as a part of our fold.
