___One Church - Two Locations
"Be The Church" Series_
September 12th kicked off our vision sermon series with St. Peter Lutheran
Church and The CORE, “Don’t Just Go To Church - Be The Church”. Pastor Ski,
Pastor Sievert, and Pastor Tim preached on being devoted to God’s Word,
People, and Mission. Here is what we learned:
In week 1, we were reminded that church is a place that God uses to create
and strengthen our faith. He does this through his Word and Sacraments.
Church is also a place that God uses to draw us to Him. We don’t go to
church because we are saints; we go to church knowing that we are broken
sinners that need to be told and reminded what Jesus has done for us through
the message of the gospel. We are thankful to our God for providing a place
for his people to gather.
In week 2, we learned that the church is about more than just the building.
Christians belong to Christ and to each other. The CORE’s building has never
officially “belonged” to them. It was during this series, that Pastor Ski
announced another church has put in an offer on the Big Picture (The CORE’s
current location) and that offer has been accepted. Thank you for all of the
prayers and support during this transitional time. In the next few weeks
Pastor Ski will be announcing where The CORE’s new home will be. Please
understand that this does not mean that the ministry is ending, it only
means that the building and location from which the ministry operates from
will be changing.
In week 3, Pastor Tim reminded all of us that God’s mission is to reach
people who are lost. Pastor Tim also reminded us that have the privilege of
sharing the gospel of Christ with all people. For it is that gospel that
works faith and leads sinners to the cross. It is that message that broken
sinners are told and reminded that Jesus is their Savior.
The next sermon series at The CORE will be “... And Other Dark Things” the
series starts October 3rd and ends October 31st.
_Neighborhoods and Small Group Update_
Our fall neighborhood groups officially kicked off on September 12th.
Sign-up was held for 3 weeks in the lobby and has now ended. New group
sign-up will resume after the first of the year.
_Nine New Members at
The CORE_
The CORE was proud to welcome 7 new members and 2 confirmand students. As
part of their welcome, we played videos of their story and how God led them
to our church. We are all just a small part in the Lord's big story.
Thank you to our new members for sharing their story and being a part of
God's mission. It was in these videos that we learned just how big our God
really is and the incredible ways that He moves in
our lives.

Church isn’t where you meet. Church isn’t a building. Church is what you do.
Church is who you are. Church is the human outworking of the person of Jesus Christ. Let’s not go to Church, let’s be the Church. -
