Thanks for visiting my BLOG. I am the pastor at St. Luke Lutheran Church in Rome, WI. I hope to share with you here some of the things that I am thinking about, that I'm challenged by, that I'm curious about. I hope this can be a place for us to encourage and challenge one another in our faith, so please add your comments.

A Thought From Sunday
Yesterday, one of the things Pastor Dave talked about in his sermon was that we are called to be advocates. One of the reasons we are able to do that is because Jesus promised to send us another Advocate. (How cool is that? We have two! Jesus AND the Holy Spirit!) I thought that fit quite lovely with something shared at the Adult Forum, talking about the synod World Hunger Appeal. Are you sitting down? Here is the line, "To give charity is give a person the crumbs off your table. To give advocate for a person is to invite them to the table with you." I may slightly misquoted, but how cool is that? Where might you be called to be an advocate today?
