Sunday, August 3, 2025 – The Eighth Sunday After Pentecost

Theme: “Take A Breath … Time To Store Up!”
Worship at 9:30 a.m. | In Person & Online

We all keep things in storage — supplies, keepsakes, plans for the future. Being prepared is wise, but Jesus invites us to consider what we are storing up, and why. In Luke 12:13-21, Jesus reminds us that while wealth and possessions can create tension, it is the desires of our hearts that ultimately shape our lives.

Take a deep, fresh breath this week and renew your trust in the One who stores up grace — not for gain, but for your good. God’s grace is always in abundance, always ready, and always enough.

Worship Highlights:

• Scripture: Luke 12:13-21

• Message: “Take A Breath … Time To Store Up!”

• Series: Part of our Pentecost theme: “Take A Breath, Take A Deep, Fresh Breath”

Location: Lord of Life Lutheran Church, Lakeville, MN
Join Us: In person or on YouTube at lordoflifemn.org/live

Come worship with us, and be filled once more with what matters most — the grace that never runs out.

Sunday, July 27, 2025 – The Seventh Sunday After Pentecost

Theme: “Take A Breath … Let’s Talk!”
Worship at 9:30 a.m. | In Person & Online

This week, we reflect on the gift and power of prayer — how even a small conversation can deepen our connection with God. In Luke 11:1-13, the disciples ask Jesus to teach them how to pray, and Jesus responds with both guidance and encouragement: God hears us, and God is faithful to respond.

As we P.R.A.Y. — Praise, Repent, Ask, and Yield — may we take a deep, fresh breath and find renewed trust in the One who listens, speaks, and walks with us.

Worship Highlights:

• Scripture: Luke 11:1-13

In Luke 10:25-37, Jesus shares the parable of The Good Samaritan in response to a question from a lawyer: “What must I do to inherit eternal life?” While the world may look the other way, Jesus teaches us to see, stop, and serve—mirroring the very grace God gives us every day.

Take a deep, fresh breath, and remember: in a world that often rushes by, God sees you, graces you, and never passes you by.

Theme: “Take A Deep Breath, See God’s Grace!”
Worship at 9:30 a.m. | Holy Communion in the Memorial Garden

This Sunday, we continue our summer theme, “Take A Breath, Take A Deep, Fresh Breath,” with a focus on opening our eyes and hearts to see God's grace right in front of us.

Our gospel reading, Luke 8:26-39, tells the story of Jesus healing a man possessed by demons—an encounter that reveals both divine power and the difficulty people sometimes have in truly seeing Jesus. While others struggled to recognize him, even the demons knew who he was. As we gather, may we take a deep breath and recognize once more the presence and grace of Jesus in our lives.
