 OPOP Support Opportunity

We are thrilled to be accompanying Wally in his 11th month of transition out of prison and back into the community with us.

Wally has recently completed reconstructive surgery on his wrist and is unemployed while healing--while his girlfriend is working and their kids are doing online school. They are in need of a better rental living situation here in Skagit County.

We are asking our BLC family is there may be any landlord, renters, or leasing situations that might be able to welcome this family we are accompanying?

Housing Need: Skagit County 3-4 bdr $1,500/mo max (we realize this is not what we find on Craigslist, which is why we bring this need to our church family to prayerfully consider any options )

Please reply to Amber at the office or directly to Alison White.

NEED HELP?

BLC Attendees:

Please contact

burlingtonlutheran@gmail.com or call 360-755-0729 

if you or someone you know:

-Doesn't have email/access to watch worship. (We are able to send worship supplies)

-Need support or help in any way (Groceries, pick up perscriptions, childcare while kids are out of school etc...)

-Are particularly anxious/distressed during this time and would like support.

-Are available to help others if need be.

Our goal is to reach out and support each other in this difficult time.

We are in this together.

Supporting the Church

While we will not be meeting in person, it is essential that we continue to pray for and support BLC through our tithes and offerings. The last few weeks – with the ramping up of COVID-19 we have experienced a significant drop in our giving. As a non-profit that is supported solely by donation, we cannot sustain a prolonged suspension of giving. While we are away from in person worship, please either send in your tithe or start giving electronically through:

-GIVE+ app (available in your app store)

-By text (simply send a text message to 360-727-0807 with the amount you want to contribute and you will receive a link to give).

Directions

Burlington Lutheran Church is a a multi-generational community of faith that worships and serves together.

We take God’s love seriously and believe that the work of the church extends beyond Sunday mornings as we move out in God’s grace daily. For us, being a part of this community of faith makes a difference in our lives.

We are glad that you have chosen to visit this site. Please continue to peruse to find out more about our community, the ministry we do, and for more about what we believe you may look at our denomination’s website, Evangelical Lutheran Church of America: www.elca.org.

Many churches make the bold claim, “all are welcome.” Most state that sincerely, but their theology provides caveats to that statement (i.e. “love the sinner, hate the sin,” “you can worship with us but you cannot serve or commune with us until _______”, “you can come here as you are, and we will change you”).

I can unequivocally say, as pastor of BLC, YOU are welcome in our church. Your questions, your intellect, you doubts, your hurts, your hopes - all are welcome in our church. Your simultaneously sinner and saint selves are welcome here. Your children are welcome to be themselves in our community, you are welcome to be who God made you to be in our midst. You have gifts that will bless us, we have gifts that will bless you and, together – with God’s help, we can infiltrate the world with God’s love. 

Join us at 10 a.m. on Sunday mornings and beyond.

Grace and Peace,
Pastor Bethany
