He has given us our physical life through His creation and gift of parents. He has given us spiritual life through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit. Finally, He will give (or has given?) the gift of eternal life with Him in Heaven. Please join us the next three Wednesdays at 6pm (December 1, 8, 15) for this important preparation for the coming of our Savior.

• MINNESOTA AREA REFORMATION FESTIVAL – This past weekend we celebrated one of the 500th Anniversary blessings that can be traced back to Luther in the Wartburg. One of the most important things the LORD through Luther was translating the New Testament from the original Greek into the language of the people.  Two new brothers to our fellowship, who, convicted by the strong Word, left their former fellowships, conduct our Minnesota Reformation Festival service.  Luke Willitz and John Schnose brought us the strong Word that we are blessed to have abundant access to today.  The service is available on Berea’s YouTube channel - https://youtu.be/-wzwKbC1QvE  The bulletin is available here - https://bereaclc-my.sharepoint.com/:b:/g/personal/pastor_bereaclc_org/ERAtz5zFsGVGlvRtyX9vXQMBabmOiUDuXXGYtJbJ083MAg?e=DtveWt
