Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, “Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? When did we see You a stranger and take You in or naked and clothe You? Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?” And the king will answer and say to them, “Assuredly, I say to you, in as much as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.

THANK YOU TO ALL WHO DONATED to the “Giving Up for Lent” effort! We delivered a van load (nearly 600 pounds) of clothing, bedding, towels, etc. to Orphan Grain Train in Ida Grove on Tuesday, 

May 6th. When we arrived, 20-some smiling faces greeted us and helped us unload. They had just finished devotions and a morning snack, and after giving us a quick tour of their warehouse, they were back at work at their stations sorting and packing items for the journey to their next destination.

Building Healthy Families: Each person’s experience with grief following an important loss is unique, yet we share one thing in common: we all need someone to hear us, listen to our stories, and be witness to our deep loss, without becoming overwhelmed or needing to fix it for us. Many are struggling with grief. Lutheran Family Service’s grief specialist Dr. Mark Vande Braak - a life-long LCMS Lutheran - is available to you or anyone you know who has suffered traumatic loss or grief. Meet with Dr. Mark in-person in Sioux Falls, South Dakota or via your phone, tablet, or computer from anywhere in the United States. Reach out to LFS today for more information or to schedule a time to talk with Dr. Mark. It’s why we’re here. Email info@lutheranfamilyservice.org, call 605-271-1081, or use the “contact us” link on the LFS website. We’ll be happy to hear from you. Lutheran Family Service  www.LutheranFamilyService.org
