Outdoor Worship and Baptism service will be August 28, 2022 at 10am at Central Park in Rosemount, MN

Baptism is a very important spiritual milestone for a person who has come to know and love Jesus Christ. If you have felt God’s call to take this step our outdoor worship and baptism service is a great time to do that. This gives us the opportunity to celebrate with you as a church family and rejoice in this important next step.

Do you have questions about being Baptized? Pastor Rob would love to have a conversation with you! Contact Pastor Rob to start the conversation.

After the Outdoor Worship service you can set up your Lawn Chairs, Blankets and a picnic lunch for your family. Restoration will provide Lemonade, Water and Chips.

Hey Restoration! It is that time of year again! Time to bless Westview Elementary School Kids with new shoes and backpacks for the school year! The Westview staff, parents, and students hugely appreciate our generous donations of shoes and backpacks each year. Westview principle Tami Staloch-Schultz recently shared with me that “donations of shoes and backpacks are appreciated as they really help balance the beginning of the year needs and anxiety of some families.”

There are a few ways you can get involved this year…

• Purchase brand new athletic shoes (any child size 1-7) and/or brand new backpacks and bring them to church on Sunday mornings.
• Donate money to be used for the purchase of shoes and backpacks-donations can be brought to church on Sunday mornings. To donate money online use the drop down menu to select Westview Backpacks and Shoes.
• Drop off shoes/backpacks/monetary donations at the Jacobson home (14230 Audobon Way, Rosemount) or any Sunday at church. Call Michele at 952-649-1369 to schedule a time to drop off.
• Deadline to drop off shoes, backpacks and donations is August 21, 2022

I hope you will consider donating to this important outreach! It has been a joy to be able to serve the students and staff at Westview Elementary over the last decade. It is because of your generosity that students are able to start the school year with their needs met and with reduced anxiety. Your generosity has also helped to facilitate a positive relationship between our church staff and the Westview staff. Those positive relationships have allowed us to continue to serve the people of Westview and help in times of need. Thank you for your generosity over the years! Please reach out to me with any questions- thank you!
