ANNOUNCEMENTS

EASTER EGG HUNT:  YOU ARE INVITED to Our Savior’s annual EASTER EGG HUNT on Sunday, April 1, during the Sunday School hour, beginning at 9:45 AM.  Each Sunday School class will be invited to the Hunt at a designated time.  If your child is too young to attend Sunday School but would like to hunt for Easter Eggs, they should be at the front doors of the school by 9:45 AM and they will join the preschool class for their hunt.  Everyone should bring their Easter Egg Baskets.  Come and have a great time with us.  

SUNDAY SCHOOL THIS WEEK:  The key point of today’s lesson is that, in our sin, we are lost from God and doomed to die, but God, in His love, sought and found us and keeps us with Him forever. The Bible story was about Jesus seeking the lost as recorded by St. Luke (Luke 15). In your family discussions, talk about how God keeps us through the work of the Holy Spirit in the Word and the Sacraments. In the catechism, review the explanation to the Third Article of the Apostles’ Creed. How does this fit with the Bible story?

LENTEN DEVOTIONAL BOOKLETS AVAILABLE: The Lenten Devotional Booklet “Time for Renewal” from Lutheran Hour Ministries is available.  Please take only one per family.  The booklets are located in the narthex.

LENTEN SERVICE: Join us Wednesday at 7 PM for our mid-week Lenten Service.  There will be a light meal served before the service at 6 PM.

OURSAVIORLOUISVILLE.COM: By the time you read this, today's sermon will have been posted on the website! Later on this week you can read today's sermon again to be reminded of God's love for you and his promises. Next month, you can go back to the archives to re-read a sermon that you found particularly meaningful.

EASTER LILIES:  LWML is taking orders for Easter Lilies until April 1st.  The cost is $9.00 per plant.  This is a wonderful opportunity to help adorn the Easter altar and remember a loved one in honor of or in memory of that person.  The order forms are located on the poster in the Narthex.  Please make the check payable to LWML and place into the furnished envelope into the offering plate.  

EASTER EGG HUNT DONATIONS NEEDED: The annual hunt is quickly approaching on Sunday, April, 1. Donations of candy, stuffed animals, plastic eggs, small prizes, etc. are needed. Please drop off your donations in the school or church lobby by Sunday, March 25.  Please contact Becky Kamman if you would like to help in any way with the hunt.  

VALET SERVICE: A valet service will begin soon at Our Savior on Sunday mornings. There will be drivers available before and after each service to assist those members with special needs to park their cars and then return their cars for them when they are ready to leave.  Experienced drivers interested in assisting with this free service should contact Sharon Coleman.

GOLDEN OLDIES:  Join us, tomorrow at Noon on March 19 for a meal and special speaker Rebecca Jackson. She will talk to us about the WHAS Crusade for Children.
