Building Healthy Families: God gave woman a special gift--the ability to carry new life within her own body. Psalm 139:13 says, “You knitted me together in my mother’s womb.” It is good that we have a day set aside specifically in honor of motherhood. In a world where human life in the womb is at risk of being aborted, we can encourage girls and young women, sharing with them the immense joy and honor of being a mother. To all our moms…thanks for who you are and all you do. Happy Mother’s Day! Lutheran Family Service
Cornbelt Barbershop Chorus will be performing at the Burt Community Center on Thursday, May 25th at 7:00 p.m. This is sponsored by the Burt Library. Everyone welcome!
