Dreams and Ideas At Grace Lutheran PSL

Jesus says in Matthew Chapter 5: 13-16

13 “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.

14 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

Salt and Light. Two things that make the world more beautiful and better. God, through the work of the Spirit, makes us into salt and light wherever we go, sending us out into our jobs and interests to bring good taste and light to everywhere around us.

As we at Grace Lutheran PSL emerge from paying off our mortgage, we find ourselves in a good position to look forward into the future. We are financially able to do some amazing salt and light work in our community. However we are not yet sure what that work is.

So at this point, then, we want to ask ourselves a really tough question.

Why does God have Grace Lutheran in St Luice West?

This question is why the planning committee at Grace is sending out this letter. How does God want us to be salt and light in Port St Lucie? Who are we? What are we here to be and do in PSL?

We at the planning Committee want your Dreams and Ideas for Grace Lutheran PSL.

Your Dreams and Ideas can be anything. From wild outlandish Dreams to something which is small and one time. We want to hear all the ideas and dreams for Grace. We believe that God is putting a common thread inside of the dreams and Ideas of all the members and friends of Grace. That thread is why God has placed us here at this time. Some churches call this the vision, others call it their mission. We like calling it the Big Idea.

Grace’s Planning committee is Cheryl Nolte, Susan Becker, Mechelle Arbuzow, Ed Bock, Leigh Liagre, Claude & Pat Hessee, and Pastor Cris Escher. If you have any questions or want to share your dreams and ideas in a personal way, Please reach out to any of these members of the committee. We are enclosing a list of possible evangelistic projects, These are just ideas to stimulate your thoughts so you can describe projects and ideas you would like to see in the church.

So please take a few minutes to share your dreams and ideas for Grace – drop them in the gold box at church, leave them in the office, email them to planning@gracelutheranpsl.com, or fill out the form on GraceLutheranPSL.com/Dreams

In Christ,
Pastor Cris
