Children’s Message
Play of Light and Shadows
Our Midweek Lenten service will focus on the play of light and shadows within the Gospel of John.
From the very beginning of John, we know that the theme of light will be important; “What has come into being in him was life, and the life was the light of all people. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overtake it,” John 1:3-5. Our Lenten services will explore how light and shadows work together to illuminate the beauty of Jesus in the world.
You are invited to share images that show this play of light and shadows. If you are an artist or crafter, bring in your work that shows this interaction so it can be displayed (you can get it back after Lent). If you are a writer or poet, send your work to be
published for the congregation. (It can be anonymous.) If you see art or pictures or hear music or watch TV or movies that lift up light and shadow, share it if you are able.
We see light and shadow all around us. Let this Lent be a time to intentionally reflect on how those lights and shadows allows us to see Jesus.
Blessed Lent to You,
Pastor Tina
P.S. You can send your work to Pastor Tina at tina@oslcaz.org, or drop it off at the office (East Mesa campus) for her.

Two Campuses, One Congregation
As we are one congregation worshiping at two campuses, our pastoral staff rotate throughout our two campuses, providing a variety of preaching styles each week. Each campus has their own uniqueness, both using a rotation of traditional worship settings from the Evangelical Lutheran Worship Hymnal.
We encourage you to take a look around our website to get a feel for our different areas and ministries.
Visitation
Our Pastoral staff and lay leaders have made a commitment of meeting the spiritual needs of not only our congregation, but also the community surrounding our campuses. We regularly make visits to area hospitals, nursing homes, rehab centers, hospice centers, and the home bound to offer prayer, communion, and support.
If you know of someone in need of a visit, please contact our East Mesa office at (480) 984-5555.
