Easter Egg Hunt
Saturday, April 4 | 10:00 a.m. – Noon

Join us for a joyful morning of fun, laughter, and a beloved community tradition! Children, grandchildren, and friends are all welcome as we gather to celebrate together.

We’ll begin in First Lutheran’s Sanctuary with a short, meaningful Easter message before heading across Pratt Street to Old Mill Park for an exciting egg hunt—where kids can search high and low to collect as many eggs as they can!

Don’t forget to bring a basket for each child.

After the hunt, we’ll return to the Friendship Center at First Lutheran for even more fun, including games, treats, face painting, and engaging activities for kids of all ages.

Thanks to the generosity of our community, each child will receive a special treat bag filled with goodies—guaranteed to bring smiles all around!

We can’t wait to celebrate with you—come make wonderful memories together!

Easter, April 5 from 9:30-10:45 a.m.
Join us for Breakfast in between Easter Services!

Come and enjoy a wonderful meal while experiencing the warmth of our welcoming community.
This event is a fantastic opportunity for fellowship, whether you're a longtime member or a newcomer.

To help us with our preparations, please RSVP.
We eagerly anticipate celebrating the joyful spirit of Easter together!

2026 Stewardship Campaign is Underway!
From Foundation to Future

“From Foundation to Future” connects the generosity of previous generations to our current Mission priorities, just as our generosity will inspire future generations to share the love of God in Christ Jesus.

Thank you for being an integral part of First Lutheran Church and for your ongoing support of our congregation’s ministry. Congregations that maintain the strong Foundation established by our past members, while embracing the call to the Future Mission of First Lutheran, learn to celebrate the gifts that are already present, realizing they are sufficient to be Christ’s Church here and now.

We’re now into the time of year when we ask those of us with treasure to share to prayerful consider completing an Estimate of Giving for 2026. Every Estimate we receive helps your Budget Committee and Council develop the budget recommendations that are presented for approval at our Annual Meeting in January. We encourage everyone who can to provide an estimate, including our many members who give electronically.

Thanks in advance from your Stewardship Committee: John Oppenlander, Mary Hall, Milenda Powers, Pr. Garrett Struessel
