August 13 Announcements
Welcome to New Life Lutheran! All are welcome at the Lord’s Table. Our Communion practice is intinction. What that means is that you will be given a wafer of bread and then have the opportunity to dip(intinct) that wafer into either wine or grape juice. The wine is dark purple/red and the grape juice is white/yellow. You are invited to use whichever you wish. You are also welcome to come forward and receive a blessing. Please indicate that to the Pastor with your hands folded as if you were in prayer when you approach.
Gluten Free Wafers are available for communion. Please let Pr. Chrisy know that is your preference.
