News / Announcements / Upcoming Events:
With classes from pre-kindergarten to eighth grade, Grace Lutheran School is a wonderful option for Christ-centered education. As part of its mission, BSLC offers tuition remission for GLS.
If you would like to apply for GLS tuition assistance for the 2024-2025 school year, please fill out an application form and return it to the church by April 15. If you have any questions about the application form or about our policy, please call Pastor Chris at the church office at 293-1047 or his cell at (701) 893-6995.
Do you have a youth who will graduate from high school in May or June? BSLC would like to know their future plans. Please email or leave an update and a picture in the church office April 18. A display of our high school seniors and future plans will be on the bulletin board in the narthex. There will also be a short article on our seniors in our May newsletter. Our congregation will honor the seniors during a Sunday worship service in May.
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.
Beautiful Savior Apparel: (Available in Church Office)
There are a few 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.
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.
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!
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.
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!
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.
