Vacation Bible School Thank You We had 65 students in attendance on Monday, 67 on Tuesday, 67 on Wednesday, and 70 on Thursday. Our Lord has given us a wonderful Vacation Bible School with amazing teachers, energetic staff, and eager students. Praise the Lord! Thank you for reaching out to others to share the Good News of God’s love, and thank you for covering our VBS with your prayers.

Thank You from the King Family Thankfully (VERY thankfully!) Ashley is on the road to recovery. Early last week Ashley started to experience a huge improvement in her overall health. The struggle now is keeping her from over-doing it! Thanks very much from all of us to everyone for their prayers, cards and flowers. They certainly were part of helping her feel better – mentally and spiritually! – Nancy & Wayne King   

Flag Lights We are having some problems with the flag lights. While the Trustees are working on it, the flag has been taken down. As soon as the problem is fixed, the flag will be raised again. We have received many comments from people who say that they love to see our church at night with the lights on the steeple and on the flag. They say that they are reminded about the wonderful blessings which God has given to us in our country, including our religious freedom.  

Teens: What do you want in a church? See the Barna Group's website below to see what most teenagers want to see in their church.  Contact Pastor Gruen or one of the Elders and let us know what YOU want.   

If you are interested in Creation and how our beliefs affect our view of the Holy Bible, check out the links on the In The Beginning page.

Sister! Sister!: Our fellowship evening with Bunco games are a great success! It is a great way to introduce your friends that may not attend church to your sisters at Beautiful Savior. Once they see how much fun we have together, they may desire to become a part of our wonderful church. More important, they may grow closer to God, which is indeed our ultimate goal. Each "sister" brings a white elephant gift or something new for about $5 to exchange after the game. Everyone is invited to this very enjoyable time of fellowship with our Christian sisters. Sister!Sister! is meeting on the second Monday of each month. Call the church at 847-395-9400 for the next date and location.

Young Adult Weekly E-mail Devotion: The Missouri Synod Northern Illinois District Young Adult Ministry Team offers a weekly e-mail devotion specially for young adults between the ages of 18-25.  It is written by Reverend Gerald Schalk, pastor at St. Matthew Lutheran Church in Barrington and vice president of the Northern Illinois District.  The devotions will be e-mailed every Monday.  To begin receiving it, contact Carol Northcutt. Include your e-mail address, name, home church with location, and college you attend.

Bulletins, etc.: We send our bulletins, prayer requests, and announcements to members and regular visitors of our congregation who wish to receive them. If you wish to be added to our e-mail list, please give your e-mail address to Pastor Gruen.
