Grace Lutheran Church "Grace Weekly" 2/1/2018

Weekend Worship

February 3 and 4, 2018

In Sunday’s gospel reading, Jesus shows His power by healing Peter’s mother-in-law, but He also chooses to have His power hidden from others. This year listening to Mark’s gospel, we often will hear about Jesus as hidden in His weakness and crucifixion, but made known as the risen Christ to believers both then and now. The Holy Spirit empowers us to see Jesus at work in our world in many hidden places.

February 4th is Scout Sunday. Cub Scout Pack 393 and Boy Scout Pack 393 will be honored at the 9 o'clock worship service 

Please join us for worship this weekend:



Saturday at 5:00 pm

Sunday at 7:45 am, 9:00 am, and 11:15 am



Christian Education for all ages at 10:15 am

Tribute to Jim Reter

Tribute to Jim Reter

February 1, 2018

Longstanding Carroll County NAACP member Jim Reter passed away on January 2, 2018. 

For those who are not aware, Jim was one of the first members of the Carroll County NAACP when the branch reformed in May 1999, after an absence from the community since 1993.

Jim was a firefighter, an Army veteran of the Korean War and Delegate Nancy Stocksdale’s brother.

On Jan. 20, 2018, Carroll County NAACP member Larry Helminiak wrote, “Remembering Jim Reter”

When I think of the Republican Party in Carroll County, I think of Jim Reter. I remember going to vote at the polling place and seeing Jim Reter passing out Republican literature. I remember going to Republican dinners and seeing Jim Reter's name on table signs.

In 2002 I became a member of the Carroll County Republican Central Committee. Jim Reter was there.

What I'm saying is that every time I went to anything Republican, Jim Reter was there.

A few years ago my son and I attended an NAACP fundraising dinner and saw that Jim Reter had a table.

Turns out that Jim was an NAACP member, and convinced me to join. I have been a member ever since.

Jim was a great person and a great Republican and will be sorely missed.

Larry Helminiak
