Shepherd of the Lake Lutheran Church, Spring 2023 >> Download the issue Welcome to Telling Our Story! Read the Full Magazine During Lent, we are focusing on the Story of Jesus. After Easter, we will switch to focus on the Story of the Spirit. We invite you to discover the ways that your story is part of God’s story as we dig into the life and witness of Jesus and the inspiration of the Holy Spirit! What we know about the story of anyone living in Minnesota is that this magazine is most likely landing in your hands when actual spring feels really far away. Or maybe it’s one of those rare warm and sunny late-winter days and you’re wearing shorts (in 50 degree weather, like a true Minnesotan). Sometimes the stories of our lives and the seasons of our hearts feel as unpredictable and varied as the weather in Minnesota. What we do know as a constant, unchanging and unfailing fact is that God is with us in the midst of all of it, holding us in love. We hope that the stories in these pages will remind you of that. Interested in receiving our magazine in your mailbox at home? Please contact Kari Unruh at kariunruh@sollc.org or call 952-230-2988 to be added to our mailing list.

This past week, a group of our high school students participated in the 2023 High School Service and Adventure Trip. The group went out to Fort Collins, Colorado to serve La Familia, an organization that works with the Latinx community of Northern Colorado. Our students cleaned up the community garden, as well as mulched La Familia's playground. They were able to play with some of the preschool students and hear stories about how La Familia makes a difference in Northern Colorado. Along the way, students got to enjoy Estes Park, some waterslides at Water World, Mount Rushmore, Deadwood, South Dakota, and deepen their relationships with God and one another.
