Welcome to Divinity Lutheran Church

So, Penelope, Andrew, and Ethan, it’s over, you’re done, congratulations…all that good stuff. And today concludes a rather…interesting Confirmation journey for you, because you were thrown a bit of a curveball this past year as we attempted different times and different formats for our gatherings and moving around the church building here and even to a different church altogether at Redeemer, just to make your lives more interesting. And somehow, you still showed up, for which Pastor Mark and myself are grateful, including to your family for making that all happen as well. Because we recognize your lives are busy, to put it mildly, and we also recognize that not only are you busy, but you have growing expectations to live up to with school and extra-curricular activities and with family, and there is a fair share of change that gets thrown at you in the midst of all of that; nevertheless, you are expected to somehow not only to survive it but to thrive in spite of it, because your life is going to have its fair share of change-ups, to say the least, some of which you know are coming with school and extra-curricular activities and family, but some you have absolutely no idea will come and will still come in any way....
