Gustavus Adolphus Lutheran Church

All men invited for food, some devotions, and fellowship!

Polish pews, dust, and deep clean the sanctuary on Saturday, April 13, from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon. Come for an hour (or more) and polish a pew or two; help us make the sanctuary sparkle for Holy Week and Easter!

One of GA Minister of Worship and Music Phil Holzman’s professional goals for 2019 is to learn or re-learn a major piece of organ literature each quarter this year and present a brief organ concert after worship. The first of these concerts will happen on April 14 when he will share Chorale in E Major by César Franck (1822-1890). Everyone is invited to get a snack and a beverage and return to the sanctuary at 11:00, even taking a seat in the choir loft for an up close and personal experience, to enjoy this brief organ concert. We’ll all be on our way by 11:30.

Join Monday Night Book Club as we participate in GA’s April discussion about racial justice. On Monday, April 15, we will discuss the introduction and first two chapters (essays) of A Good Time for the Truth: Race in Minnesota edited by Sun Yung Shin. This book is a compilation of essays written by 16 Minnesota authors. Read about their different perspectives of what it is like to live as a person of color in Minnesota.

We will meet downstairs at 7:00 p.m. on April 15. Books will be provided in the narthex beginning Sunday, April 7, during the racial justice workshop on April 8, as well as at the book club on the 15^th. All are welcome!

Join us on Tuesday, April 16, as we discuss Scripture, current events, the Church, and of course. . . beer. Our scripture focus for our discussion this month will be John 20:1-18.

Bring your favorite libation to share with the group. (If you’d like to help our hosts by bringing a snack as well, please do!) Please note that we’ll be meeting one week later than usual this month; and we’ll once again meet at the home of Jenny and Sean Tessmer. Hope to see you!
