Children to sing during Lutheran church service

Lutheran Academy of the Master children will be singing special songs Sunday during the 8:30 a.m. worship service at Lutheran Church of the Master, 4800 Ramsey Road. They also will share their artwork related to fishing and share the Bible story of Jesus calling his disciples to fish for the people.

Two new Bible studies are being offered on Sunday mornings at Lutheran Church of the Master from 9:45 to 10:45. "Raising Kids" offers parenting education, especially for parents with preschool- and elementary-age children and continues for 12 weeks. "The Ultimate Hunt," an eight-week course, may be especially interesting to men, by affirming their recreational and sporting activities, as they explore their faith and seek to walk with Christ in their daily lives.
