Announcements for the Week of June 14, 2026
THE FLOWERS ON THE ALTAR are given by the Herbst Family in loving memory of David Herbst Sr.
WE WELCOME OUR GUESTS: We are glad to have you worship with us today. We ask our guests to please sign our guest register. If you have any questions, please ask any member or Pastor.
IF YOU KNOW SOMEONE: that is interested in learning more about Salem, please give contact information to Pastor Doletzky.
EVANGELISM THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: Today we heard Jesus say, 13Go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.’ In fact, I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners.” (Matthew 9:13). Sometimes people think that if they try hard and do their best, they are in good standing with God and will receive His favor. Such people think they are fine on their own. But Jesus reminds us, it’s people who see that they are lost sinners who will see their need for a Savior. That’s when we can bring joy to the hearts of others, when they hear the good news that Jesus came and saved them from their sins!
WE CONTINUE OUR NEW BIBLE CLASS TODAY! Irreconcilable: A Study of the Pharisees and Their Conflict With Jesus. Who were the Pharisees, and why did they clash with Jesus so often? Come as we look at how the Pharisees and Jesus sometimes appeared to have something in common, but in the end, they didn’t. We will look at their teachings and how we still have to fight some of the same false ideas the Pharisees and people around us have today. Each person who attends will receive a personal study booklet as we cover these topics over the course of 11 different lessons.
THOSE TO KEEP IN OUR PRAYERS: Mike & Laura Thomas, Mark Kuehn, Judy Hubert, Janice Lancour, David Herbst Jr, Ken Leinberger, Lisa Nord and Mary Hupy. We pray for all of our shut-ins. We pray for our Synod and our missionaries. We pray for our troops, our leaders in the congregation, and in our city, state and nation. We pray for our straying members and those who don’t know Jesus.
FAMILY VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL: This summer, we are going to have Vacation Bible School for three days in July. Tuesday, July 21st through Thursday, July 23rd. All children from 3 years old through 8th grade are welcome. We will also have a Bible Class for Adults led by Pastor each evening as well. We plan on starting at 5 p.m. More details will be coming as we get closer, but please set these dates aside. If you would like to help in any way (teacher, helper, food for the kids, games, crafts, etc.) please let Pastor or Aylssa Sovey know. Thanks so much!
THE NEW Meditations: are out and ready to be picked up. Please think about giving one to someone who could use encouragement from God’s Word.
THE NEW Forward in Christ for June is out and ready to be picked up and shared.
COMMUNION PROCEDURE: We will use both the Common Cup and the Individual Cups as we celebrate Communion. The procedure will be as follows: 1) The bread will be distributed; please hold out your hand for the bread. 2) The individual cups will be distributed. Take an individual cup if you wish. 3) The common cup will then be distributed to those who did not take one of the individual cups. 4) Please leave the individual cups in the rack on the communion rail. If you are unable to come to the Altar for communion please speak to one of the Ushers. Pastor will bring communion to you in the pew.

We’ll be collecting items for Safe Harbor – you can find the list of items they are requesting on their website and Facebook page. This month we will gather at Alice Herbst’s house. The address is in your directory. If you will be driving through Escanaba to get there and would like to possibly carpool, see Carrie.
DISTRICT CONVENTION: This past Tuesday and Wednesday, Pastor and Dewey Klein attended our Northern Wisconsin District Convention at Fox Valley Lutheran High School in Appleton, WI. Our District elected Pastor Kevin Westra as our new District President to replace Pastor Joel Zank, who has retired. Pastor Westra is the father of Pastor Sam Westra, who serves Mt. Olive Lutheran Church in Iron Mountain, MI. Pastor Kevin Westra currently serves at Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Hortonville, WI. Pastor Zank served our District faithfully for 12 years and accepted a retirement call to help the District Presidents in the Northern and Western Wisconsin Districts with teacher call lists. We thank the Lord for Pastor Zank’s faithful service. Pastor Jon Zabell, who serves St. Paul’s in Green Bay, was elected First-Vice President. Pastor Ryan Kolander, who serves Riverview Lutheran Church in Appleton, WI, was elected Second Vice-President of our District. Pastor Doletzky was re-elected to be our Circuit Pastor. There were many interesting presentations on how the Lord is blessing our home and world mission efforts. Anchor in Marquette is looking for a bigger building and had 115 in church last weekend. Please ask Pastor or Dewey about any questions you may have, or check the district convention website at https://sites.google.com/view/nwidc.
