Special Congregational Meeting
We have an exciting missional opportunity before us. Morning Star is currently in discussion with Lutheran Family Services to be a partner in ministry on the lower level of our church building. Soon, you will receive a letter with frequently asked questions that will be helpful in explaining this exciting potential partnership. Please mark your calendars for a congregational meeting on Sunday, June 7th, following worship to discuss and vote on this promising missional partnership.
Thank you!
