News / Announcements / Upcoming Events:


As part of the process of calling a pastor, Beautiful Savior will undergo a congregational self-study. This study will help identify the reasons the congregation exists, what needs the congregation should address and help prioritize the characteristics, skills and preferences the next pastor should have. All this information will help the district president to compile a call list with pastors who would fit the congregation’s style, emphases and needs. All members are encouraged to fill out the survey so they can have input and ownership in this process. The deadline to fill out the survey is Oct. 9.












Sunday School wouldn’t be a success without our volunteers! We are looking for people to help with specific projects (helping with activities, being that extra set of hands in a classroom, helping with memory work, taking attendance, etc), please contact Stacy Knudson, Pastor Chris, or the church office – or stop in the office on Sunday morning to sign up. We can always use a spare pair of hands!


As a part of our education ministry, BSLC offers confirmation classes for students in seventh through ninth grades. If you have a child in those classes, please have them join us in-person Wednesdays from 6:15 pm – 7:30 pm. If you have any questions, please talk with Pastor Chris.




Beautiful Savior Apparel: (Available in Church Office)
There are spare t-shirts, Polo Shirts and half-zip long-sleeve shirts available in the church office for purchase. Sizes are limited for the ones in the office. But, you can purchase and take yours home today if you find the one that fits. T-shirts are $15.00 and the other items are priced.

There is a sign-up sheet in the narthex to sign up to bring two dozen treats, serve and/or cleanup on Sunday mornings. You can choose which Sunday works best for you. If you have questions, please contact the church office.




Wittenberg Lutheran Chapel is an LCMS campus ministry serving students at UND. Their current organ is falling into disrepair and needs to be replaced. They are hoping to replace their current pipe organ with a digital organ, reducing overall maintenance costs. They aim to raise $100,000 by fall of 2024, hoping to dedicate it at their 60th anniversary celebration. You can partner with them by donating an organ key: 70 white keys: $100-500 each; 50 black keys: $501-1000 each; and 25 pedal keys: $1001+ each. Gifts designated “Wittenberg Organ” may be sent to ND District LCMS, Box 9029, Fargo, ND 58106-9029. Click here for more information.


The food pantry at Beautiful Savior could use a few items: canned tuna, canned fruit, rice or potato packets and canned soup. If you are able to help with these needed items, you may drop them off in the collection container in the narthex. Thank you so much for helping restock our shelves.






The LWML invites you to save your used postage stamps (yes, the stamps that come on your incoming mail every day). Just tear off the corner of the envelope, keeping the whole stamp in tack with at least a 1/4 inch border around it. Place these used stamps in the appropriate drawer of the plastic drawer cabinet that is located next to the LWML kiosk. These stamps are actually sold at auctions to collectors and bring in cash for the LWML Mites program.








Do we have your current phone number, email and mailing address? If you have moved, got rid of your landline/old phone number or have a new email address, please let us know.

Beautiful Savior has live audio and video during worship services available in the fellowship hall. If you have not been coming to church out of concern the sanctuary might be “too full”, the fellowship hall is another option for worship at the church. See photo to the right of what the screen looks like during a worship service. (Click on the picture to enlarge it.)

























Please let the church office know when you plan to leave for the winter so that you will still receive any correspondence from the church. The church has to pay the post office 63 cents for each piece of mail returned. You can also let the church know if you would like the e-mail version of the newsletter while you are out of town. Thank you for keeping the church updated while you travel!



Save the Date: Celebration of Grace will be held Friday, November 10 starting at 5:30pm at the Sanctuary Events Center. Click here to view the poster.
