Immanuel Vision
By Pastor Steve
Immanuel has a lot of exciting things starting back up this month that you are going to be sure to be aware of and be a part of! This weekend, Immanuel rallies around God’s Word in worship and Bible Study. Sunday School starts on September 13th with a large group opening with songs, story, and excitement! Sunday School Registration is helpful, so sign up today and join in on the fun! Sunday School will also help the Christian home put God’s Word in their heart with new age appropriate benchmarks for learning goals (K-Lord’s Prayer; 1st-New Testament Books; 2nd-Old Testament Books; 3rd-Apostles’ Creed; 4th-10 Bible Verses; 5th-15 Bible verses). New Bible studies start up as well, so check out which Bible study you want to attend (Discipleship 101 and Big Moments in Samuel). As we kick off the new year, we continue to encourage all God’s people to grow in wisdom and stature before God and man so mark your Calendar with all our Discipleship offerings!
Our building project continues to progress! You can check out Immanuel social media for regular updates! We will have another hard hat weekend once we get the building enclosed this fall, so watch for that date to come!
As we watch the building happen, Immanuel continues to discuss what the next steps are. In order to develop some strategic plans, Immanuel is asking a lot of questions about what our Immanuel family considers the ideal church! At our October 4th Townhall meeting, this will be the topic for discussion. Join us at 11:45am to lend your voice in helping Immanuel prepare for our next steps for us to grow the reach and impact of Immanuel’s ministry and take our survey to help us collect the data we need for informed strategic planning!

Put these important dates on your calendar!

Managing Marriage
By Pastor Steve
Amazing grace has been close to my heart these last few months. I see the grace of God working in the lives of many Immanuel members and throughout our building. I hear of God’s amazing grace empowering people to serve in far away places and through servant events. The eagerness of children coming to school to learn with and from those whom they come to love! I see the eagerness of His amazing grace, which compels us to look for ways to shower people with undeserved gifts wherever we are! But do I see this amazing grace as abundantly as it should be in my own marriage?
Grace is often described as an acronym – God’s Riches At Christ’s Expense. Grace is that amazing gift that God has given us, which we in no way deserve! This grace that we have received, we now also get to share with others – including our spouse! While we do not have all of God’s riches to dispense to our loved ones, we certainly can give them what they do not deserve – unconditional love! This grace provides true freedom for the Christian, and it should provide that same kind of freedom in our marriage! Here are three ways to allow His amazing Grace to flood your marriage and overwhelm your spouse with unconditional love!
We must first grant our spouse the freedom to be different! When God created us male and female, He planned for our differences to complete, strengthen, and bless us. In order for this to fully come through in our oneness, we must grant our spouse the grace to be different. Yes, I am saying that we need to let our spouse be weird, goofy, quirky, and even downright strange from time to time (just note that these “idiosyncrasies” must still abide by God’s Word)! This is the person you pledged your undying love toward. This is the person that God created them to be. This is the grace you can pour out as you honor these God pleasing differences!
Second, we need to provide the freedom to be honest. Honesty is something that we desire from our spouse, as long as it is the kind of honesty that I want to hear! Honesty sometimes means that we need to extend grace to our spouse, giving the opportunity to say something that is hard to hear. It also means valuing what it is the other person says while working toward understanding. When your spouse tells you about the difficulties of their day, grace doesn’t downplay what they had to deal with so that you can tell them the real troubles of your day. No! Grace, to be honest, seeks to understand their struggle and empathize with their experience.
Finally, we need to provide lavish grace for the freedom to be imperfect! The reality is, as we love our spouse, we will find “rough edges,” “harsh words,” and even a blatant sin or two. Grace looks this sin in the eye, forgives it by applying the healing balm of the rich grace of God that we also have received from Him! The writer of Hebrews points out that this grace to be imperfect has a purpose: to guard and protect you against bitterness. He writes, “See to it that no one misses the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble” (12:15). This month, look for opportunities to pour forth grace in your marriage and enjoy His never ending goodness!

School Mission
By Jen Comfort
The 2026-2027 school year begins next week! The theme for the year is “Unfinished” from Philippians 1:6: "I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ."
This week, we will welcome 362 students in kindergarten through eighth grade and will welcome 56 students in K3 and K4 in September. We are blessed to serve our new and returning families this year.
Throughout the school year, we ask that you keep our Immanuel School and Childcare faculty, staff, and families in your prayers. We look forward to identifying ways we are connected through Jesus as we support our students by delivering an excellent Christ-centered education. I am excited to share how God is working in us and through us this year.

Campus Update
By Jessica Pelnar
There has been a lot happening around campus lately, and while some of the biggest updates aren’t always the most exciting to look at, they are an important part of preparing our campus for the future!
The Fellowship Hall is open again! Child Care has officially moved back into its space, which means the Fellowship Hall is once again available for our congregation to use. Thank you for your patience while we navigated the construction and temporary spaces!
A lot is happening behind the walls too. Much of the work lately has involved infrastructure—things like plumbing, sewer lines, electrical updates, and other systems that aren’t always visible once the project is finished. These improvements are an important foundation for the updated spaces and will serve our ministries for years to come.
You can see one example (below) in the photo of the old sewer pipes that were replaced. It may not be glamorous, but it is a great reminder that there is much more to this project than what we see on the surface!
Thank you for continuing to be patient, flexible, and supportive as construction continues. We’re grateful for the opportunity to invest in the future of our campus and the ministries that happen here every day.
One quick reminder: The Church Office and Child Care will be closed Monday, August 17, for an all-staff meeting. We’ll be back to regular hours on Tuesday.
Thank you for being part of this exciting season at Immanuel!
