WORSHIP NEWS

What do you value in worship?
This is the topic of discussion ongoing with our Worship & Music Team.

We would like to hear from you! Think about what you like about the worship service you attend, and perhaps what you could do without. What do you take with you when you leave worship? What part of worship helps you through your week? What part of worship do you look forward to each time? What part of worship inspires you and encourages you? What do you miss when you don’t attend worship? What new worship practice would you like to see?

Please email your views to the church office.

Bake Holy Communion Bread For Calvary Lutheran Church

Is baking your gift? You can share it by providing home-baked bread for Holy Communion. Marshia Nicholson has given us the recipe:

Please follow this recipe exactly. It makes loaves that are easy to use for distribution, without the distraction of crumbly bread or thick loaves.

Ingredients:
1 - 1/2 c. whole wheat flour
1/2 c. white flour
pinch of salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
2 T. oil
2 T. honey
1 T. molasses (or add one more T. of honey)
1/2 to 3/4 c. cold water

1. Mix dry ingredients.
2. Cut in oil, then add honey, molasses, and water. The texture of the dough should be like biscuit dough.
3. Knead slightly until dough is elastic (similar to biscuits).
4. Roll dough out to 1/4 inch thick.
5. Cut into circles approx. 5 inches across. Use a small mixing bowl or cereal bowl to cut the circles, or a 3-cup Rubbermaid storage container (it’s about 5 inches across the opening) is a perfect size.
6. Slice a simple cross with a sharp knife, from one edge to the other.
7. Bake @ 350° for 10-12 min. Makes 4-5 loaves.
Please contact Marshia Nicholson if you would like to provide communion bread.
