For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him. For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. And not only this, but we also exult in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation. Romans 5:6-11

This is the 'Good News' that the Lutheran Church of Our Savior believes and rejoices in. This is why Christ was born. The angel said to Joseph, "you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins." Matthew 1:21. And for this we are thankful.
You are invited to come and worship with us this Sunday.

Time Of The Church
The First Sunday after Pentecost begins the Time Of The Church, it is also known as the Sunday of the Holy Trinity. This feast is a celebration of the mystery of the holy, triune God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, the one God who reveals Himself in three persons.
Since our Lord has ascended into heaven and has sent His Spirit on Pentecost, the focus during The Time Of The Church is on Christ and His teaching, and how it is applied to the church. We learn that God's Word is not chained. The Word crosses all human borders and barriers to create faith in Christ, and His unearned, unmerited, undeserved mercy for sinners. This truth sets us free from bondage and opens up heaven for us.
The last Sunday after Pentecost is called the Sunday Of The Fulfillment or Christ The King Sunday. It points us to Christ's second coming when we will see all things come under the reign of the one King. We now await the end of time, when our Lord will gather the faithful to celebrate "the marriage feast of the lamb in His kingdom" which has no time.
