Help Messiah youth fund their mission trips - Help the environment. You can now recycle all your paper products, including newspapers, magazines, printer paper, (but no cardboard and telephone books), by dropping them in the large yellow and green dumpster at the NE entrance to the parking lot. All money received from recycling will go to our youth and their mission trips. Thank You!

 

Global Link: Messiah Lutheran Church is linked to Hungary, where Sarah Cusson serves as a GEO missionary. She writes, "At out first meeting of the year, two students attended the weekly Bible study that I am leading. One was a girl who has attended Bible study before, and the other, a girl who is an exchange student from Germany. We talked about how Jesus is the only way to heaven and that there is a higher truth than what we as humans can come up with ourselves. I was thankful for this time with them and pray that the Holy Spirit will continue to work in them. I've also had many other students ask about this Bible study, so I hope that more will attend and come to know Jesus as their Savior."
