They will be preaching sermons that proclaim a vision for mission in our congregation and community. Members of Augustana are cordially invited to join in this special time of preaching. The studies are independent from one another so if you were not able to attend the first meeting you are invited to come on May 2 for the second session. Early birds in the congregation would be most welcome to help unload the truck and do inventory. Those who need a little more beauty sleep are invited to show up a little later to help with the layout and actual planting.
