This week, our hearts go out to the congregation at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Pomaria, who lost their building in a devastating fire. We continue to pray for and support them in the midst of this great tragedy. Our churches are more than just buildings: they are holy places where we experience God in our midst. May God bless and uphold the people of St. Paul and help them to feel His presence close by as they remember the many holy moments they have shared in their church and await the many more holy moments they will share as God leads them into the future.
