We are in the midst of another humanitarian crisis; this one caused by Russian aggression on Ukrainian soil. Hundreds of civilians have been killed or injured and millions are fleeing to neighboring countries for refuge. Our Ukrainian neighbors are suffering, and they need our help. We will continue to hold the people of Ukraine in our prayers.
Additionally, we can make a tangible difference in the lives of the men, women, and children of Ukraine by donating to relief organizations such as these:

Midweek Lenten Services 2022
Throughout Lent, Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church and our church will have the opportunity to worship together every Wednesday evening at 6:30pm, in person at Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church, and online via YouTube Streaming.
Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church
17625 NW Cornell Rd, Beaverton, OR 97006
These will be quiet, contemplative worship services designed to assist us all in our Lenten walk with Jesus toward the cross.
We will continue to follow the COVID protocols created for us by our Worship Transition Team, with one exception: Because we will be bringing two faith communities together for these midweek services, we will also be asking participants to show proof of vaccination to attend worship in person.
