Emmanuel Lutheran Church & School

In the story of Jonah and the whale, God gave Jonah a job, and Jonah ran.  Then as he was running, he told the sailors to throw him overboard.  Jonah needed help; Jonah needed to be delivered; Jonah needed to be saved from himself.  God was there to rescue Jonah.  Later Jonah preached to the people of Nineveh, and God rescued, them too.  Today this same, loving God is always here to rescue us, even from problems we cause ourselves.  He protects us, leads us to confess our sin, forgives us, and gives us power to follow Him.  Jesus overcame the problem of sin on the cross and He offers us the solution to the problem of sin.  That solution of forgiveness is something we can be firmly rooted in. 

Emmanuel Lutheran School will be hosting a First Grade Open House on Wednesday, January 30, at 7:00 p.m. in the First Grade classroom.  It will be an opportunity for you to find out exactly what a “grade” is all about.  Mrs. Blackwell will present an overview of the curriculum and will be happy to answer any questions you may have.  Please tell someone who may be looking for a quality first grade program.  We’d love to have them join us. 

You have the opportunity to join us in an on-line survey about Emmanuel Lutheran School.  We are joining 70 other Lutheran Schools in the Michigan District in this unique offering that will allow us to strengthen our mission here at Emmanuel.  Just log on to  www.myschoolsurvey.com and key in our school code, 602502.  You have until February 8, to complete this survey and thanks for participating.
