School Mission
By Jen Comfort
While our school students are enjoying the summer away from the building, our Immanuel childcare is in full operation. The small summer camp students stay cool with special water days and have enjoyed a field trip to the Butler Library. Next up is a trip to Java Train. This week’s theme was Christmas in July. Students sang Christmas songs and made melting snowmen out of ice cream! Three and four year olds explored nature with walks outside and through reading books. The week would not be complete without summer Chapel every Thursday!
The Immanuel Childcare has openings in our 3 and 4 year old classrooms. Spread the word about our safe, Christ-centered environment to interested families. Also, we are hiring for After School teachers for the hours 3:00-5:30 pm Monday through Friday. Interested individuals must be 18 years of age or older and can contact the office with any questions at 262.781.7140. We look forward to speaking with you!

Construction Update
By Jessica Pelnar
Exciting progress continues on our Called To Be Ministry Expansion!
The exterior of the new cafeteria is now being bricked, carefully matching the existing buildings to create a seamless look that reflects the beauty and character of our campus.
Work is also moving forward on the new education wing as crews begin pouring the footings that will support the foundation of this important addition. Each step brings us closer to creating new spaces where students will learn, grow, and deepen their faith for generations to come.
Inside the school, several improvements are underway as well. Air conditioning has been installed in the kindergarten hallway classrooms, providing a more comfortable learning environment for our youngest students. We are also preparing for new flooring in both the kindergarten hallway and the gym hallway, giving these high-traffic areas a fresh new look.
Behind the scenes, significant infrastructure upgrades have been completed in the kindergarten wing, including the replacement of all sewer piping and electrical conduit systems. While these improvements may not be visible once construction is complete, they are essential investments that will serve our students, staff, and families well into the future.
Thank you for your continued prayers, generosity, and support as God continues to build His ministry at Immanuel. Every milestone is possible because of your partnership in the Called To Be Campaign!

Managing Marriage
By Pastor Steve
It is baseball season, so I thought we needed some good pun work. So, I thought of Gary Chapman’s “Fowl Play”! In marriage, we have all been there—that place where you just can’t seem to get across your point of view. You just can’t get your spouse to understand; they just aren’t “listening.” We all know what happens next—a fight breaks out, because communication has failed. When communication breaks down, there are several other areas that we turn to but far too often, we just turn to FOWL PLAY!
Do you turn into a DOVE? The dove is a person who will do anything to keep the peace, with wings fluttering, “whatever makes you happy makes me happy” and the soft chirp, “that’s fine with me.” The Dove never really seems to accomplish much. What does become apparent is that the Dove would rather keep the peace than really share their thoughts or feelings with open and honest communication.
Maybe you turn into a HAWK. The Hawk is a person who blames anyone and everyone else, never taking responsibility. The hawk swoops in with a quick, “You never do anything right.” While the Hawk seems strong, a different reality is found under the façade. The Hawk simply likes to find fault in others, to avoid dealing with its own faults.
Others might be an OWL. The Owl looks to reason to search out a logical answer for the problem. The Owl prides himself on people coming to the conclusion, “Wow, how could anyone see it differently than that?” Yet, the Owl is patient and lets emotion pass before calmly speaking—often without listening to the other person. The Owl seems to have all the answers, but really shows little concern for the other birds in the nest (except to cover them with their great wisdom).
Yet others might prefer the OSTRICH. This bird simply sticks its head in the sand and ignores the problem. Seldom does an Ostrich deal directly with a problem, but rather hides from it. Soon, when the Ostrich pulls its head back out of the sand, the problem has moved on, or they simply look the other way as if there isn’t an elephant in the closet.
While each of us can be each of these birds from time to time, the most important thing to do is recognize this and begin to CHANGE our FOWL PLAY! When we see our failing patterns of communication, we can see what we can work to change so that we move toward a healthier marriage. We can move from poor communication to good communication as the dove speaks the truth in love, as the hawk accepts responsibility for behaviors, as the owl trades in the know it all attitude and becomes one who wants to know more about others, and as the ostrich holds its head up high and seeks to understand and deal with the problem. Let’s get rid of the FOWL play and back to fair play in our marriage so we can enjoy the marital blessings we long for! (Adapted from Gary Chapman, “Fowl Play”)

Month at a Glance
By Pastor Steve
This month, we cannot help but see the many things that we have to give thanks for! As a nation, we celebrate 250 years of freedom and the blessing it is that we are able to worship our God! As a church family we celebrate the work that is being done for our ministry and His kingdom - parking lot, cafeteria edition, and school wing work beginning. While in all these things, we know that there are highs and lows, we know the one who is with us through them all. It is to Him that we give thanks! “For freedom Christ has set us free…For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another” (Gal 5:1,13). Join us as we celebrate Jesus who sets us free to be His people and praise His name!

Construction Update: Thank you to everyone who made the effort to join us for a special worship service and voter’s meeting out at Lake Country Lutheran last month during our parking lot work. What a blessing to be together and see great things happening throughout the Lord’s church! The floor of the cafeteria addition has been poured as work continues. You will start to see brick going up outside soon. The 2nd & 3rd grade wing was taken down, and we have a big hole in the side of our building as we prepare the way for the new two-story school wing. The parking lot had the finishing landscaping touches put on this week, and it looks great! Watch for a summer “hard hat” tour weekend, where you will be able to walk through and see the progress!
