Today I took the morning service at St.Peter’s Lutheran Church in Luck, WI. This is a small LCMC congregation with good people. Turnout was small; sometimes we go for quality, rather than quantity. St.Peter’s receives me well and I feel very welcome. Next week I’m there again and it will be Holy Communion, which has a format that is quite different than the formats I’m used to. I just need to find my way in the thicket of options in their “green book”. The congregation is gifted with a good musician, Sherry, and with Tommy Thompson, Balsam Lake’s police chief in real life but a man who can step in to read scripture in public with understanding and authority. I can tell you from experience elsewhere, this is a blessing for St.Peter’s!
