Over the last few years First Lutheran has developed a growing ministry to our adult members.  Interestingly, the events are often engaging enough to include younger participants as well, so we hesitate to use labels or define this group by age.

There are numerous small groups, book studies, and Bible studies that meet throughout the year, as well as classes and larger scale group events.  See Small Groups, check the weekly/monthly calendar, or call the church office for more information, 762-2196.

Upcoming events:

• Holy Land Tour:  October 19-30.  Join Pastors Greg and Sherry for an amazing trip planned and arranged by Bursch Travel.  Brochures available on the Israel Tour bulletin board in the main hallway.  Contact Pastor Greg or Bursch Travel (320) 762-1544 for answers to your questions!  Or click on this PDF for a complete itinerary  .
• Two buses from First Lutheran - 108 people - enjoyed the new Target Field on Lutheran Night, August 18, as the Twins beat the White Sox!
