Ways to Love, Serve and Give

Pastor Sarah has started her miles this month!  You are welcome to still donate to her page. She is still in the top 5!. Click here to donate to her page directly.     

 Do you wonder what Outreach for Hope does?  It is the arm of the synod which coordinates partner ministries like we have with Hephatha.  We are one of many churches that support sister churches in Milwaukee—Hephatha has over 20 ministry partners like us.  Watch this great video from Pastor Mary Martha, made by OFH!

Don’t Pre-Heat Your Oven

Unless it’s absolutely essential, for example if you’re making bread, you don’t need to pre-heat the oven. You can just set it away when you are ready to start cooking. Bonus tip: When checking the food, look through the door rather than opening it until the final check.

Thank you for your continued to support of Bay Shore during this difficult time.

Our mission and ministries are funded solely on the offerings we receive. Please continue to mail your offerings to the church.  Or, to make an offering online using a debit/credit card right now, you may do so here.

Ways to Connect and Share

It’s Fall, and it’s also Election Time.  Due to Covid-19 this year, the act of voting has become difficult for many. There is much confusion on where and how to vote—especially if you prefer absentee voting as your option.

The League of Women Voters, a non-partisan organization, has recently sent an informative email which answer some of the questions you may have about voting in our areas here in Milwaukee. A link to their latest email is HERE (click here).   We also have a few persons here at Bay Shore that are willing to assist our members with maneuvering through the voting process. If you would like some help in getting your vote officially completed this year, please email me directly and I will forward your request to our volunteers.  –Pastor Sarah

Community News to Share:

This Sunday, we will bless backpacks for students of all ages! Join us for worship at 10:00 a.m.

Our Hands” bright yellow                  tee-shirts, wear it to worship on Sunday, September 27!

 Congratulations to Ali Wilder and Tim Wiencek who will be married on Friday, September 25 in a private ceremony at Bay Shore.

We will be blessing our beloved pets virtually this year on Sunday, Oct. 4.

On Sunday, Sept. 27, Pastor Sarah will be sharing the Sacrament of Holy Communion from 11-noon in the parking lot. More details to come.

The Rev. Dr. Lisa Froiland, pastor of Redeemer Lutheran, and Dayvin Hallmon, Black String Triage Ensemble, have created a video entitled, Why Kenosha happened…  Many shared this video already on Facebook, but for those of you who have not seen it, here is a link: https://youtu.be/jxSVsPe1a3I

The Bay Shore Lutheran Church Foundation (BSLCF) is accepting grant applications until September 30, 2020. Grant requests should reflect the religious, charitable and educational responsibilities of Bay Shore Lutheran Church (BSLC), including furtherance of its spiritual ministry, care of its physical properties, implementation of educational responsibilities, and support of organizations and groups within the congregation. Grants from the BSLCF are intended to supplement, not substitute, financing provided by the normal BSLC operating budget. Grant applications can also be considered for support of agencies and activities outside of the BSLC congregation which have, in the opinion of the Foundation, a clearly identifiable Lutheran character and emphasis, complementing the ministry of BSLC and/or providing services to its membership.  These grants should also reflect a religious, charitable and educational responsibility and focus. The grant application form is available now by contacting the church office at [email protected]

 Prayer of the Week: Prayer for Social Justice

 We cannot merely pray to you, O God, to end war, for we know that you have made the world in a way that people must find their own path to peace within themselves and with their neighbors.

 

We cannot merely pray to you, O God, to end starvation, for you have already given us the resources with which to feed the entire world, if we would only use them wisely.

 

We cannot merely pray to you, O God, to root out prejudice, for you have already given us eyes with which to see the good in all people, if we would only use them rightly.

 

We cannot merely pray to you, O God, to end despair, for you have already given us the power to clear away slums and to give hope, if we would only use our power justly.

 

We cannot merely pray to you, O God, to end disease, for you have already given us great minds with which to search out cures and healing, if we would only use them constructively.

 

Therefore, we pray to you instead, O God, for strength, determination and will power,
to DO instead of just pray, to BECOME instead of merely to wish. Amen
