CALL NEWS

Call Returned
-Mr. Paul Huebner returned the Call to teach at Illinois Lutheran High School in Crete, IL  We keep ILHS in our prayers as they continue the Call process to find a band director.
-Pastor Paul Brug returned his Call to teach German at Michigan Lutheran Seminary.  We keep MLS in our prayers as they continue to Call process to find a German instructor.

What is a "Call?"
We believe that it is the Lord, through the church, who calls people to serve in the public ministry. Individuals already serving in public ministry who receive a call to serve in another field prayerfully deliberate both calls they hold. One of the ways they do this is by examining one's gifts; understanding the duties of both calls and how one's gifts will be best utilized; and considering feedback from colleagues, family and members of the school and congregation. Called workers have the confidence that God will bless their decision.

As always, parents should use their own judgment in determining if the weather or travel conditions are too risky to allow their child(ren) to make the trip to school.  Students should be reminded that entrance/exit ramps on interstate and country roads become ice covered and slippery, and that all bridges and overpasses freeze first.  Slower speeds should be encouraged for their safety.
