Spring is blooming with activity at Immanuel!
As we enter the final stretch of the school year, Immanuel is alive with energy, learning, and joyful events that bring our school family together.
Recently, our youngest learners in 3K, 4K, and 5K enjoyed our Dads and Dinos event. From prehistoric crafts to fossil-sized fun, it was a day full of memories and smiles!
And there’s still more to come! We’re looking forward to cheering on our athletes at the Boys Volleyball Tournament on April 24–25. Then it’s lights, camera, action at the Spring Musical on May 1st—always a highlight of the year. The fun continues the next evening with the Father Daughter Dance on May 2nd, a night full of laughter, music, and special moments.
It’s a great time to be part of the Immanuel community—let’s finish the year strong and full of joy!

Spring Has Sprung! Do You Need Yardwork Help?
This spring and summer, Immanuel’s youth are offering a yard/garden clean-up service. If you or any Immanuel member (church or school) needs help with their outdoor space, consider having a few of Immanuel’s own high schoolers come over for a couple of hours and get your yard looking great!
We are offering services such as: weeding, mulching, trimming bushes, planting, raking leaves/debris, etc.
We will not offer services requiring chainsaws or large power tools. Additionally, while we will bring gloves and a couple shovels and rakes, we ask that you provide the materials needed for your yard: mulch, plants, wheelbarrows, waste bags, etc.
A free will offering will be accepted for services rendered.
The schedule for this fundraiser is still in the works. Space is limited!
Please email Heather Vahl (hvahl@immanuelbrookfield.org) with the nature of your request and how we can help!

Immanuel Vision
By Pastor Steve
Immanuel continues to walk a journey, deliberating what the Lord will do in our midst! In January of 2023, we began surveying our needs. We all know we need space for ministry to continue to grow, and we worked to put a name on that space. Matching those identified needs with master plans developed by leadership, Immanuel identified a possible plan to meet many of those needs. This plan was developed throughout 2023 and presented to the congregation in January of 2024. In February and March, we had several listening sessions to see if this plan was targeting the needs of Immanuel for our future growth.
Our Called to Be campaign is the formal process, in partnership with the Lutheran Church Extension Fund. Immanuel has held five forums with over 138 participants sharing their perspectives on our plans to extend the ministry of Immanuel. We are encouraging everyone to take the Called to Be survey! We will share the report provided by the Lutheran Church Extension Fund in late May or early June as we continue to figure out how our God, who is with us, will direct us to go.
As you are in prayer about the future of Immanuel, please ask the Lord to open doors that direct us in the way we should go and close the doors that we shouldn’t be walking through. Pray that the voices of Immanuel reveal the Lord’s will, that we continue to grow in a deeper relationship with Him, and that together we continually praise the Lord for all His blessings! If you have any questions, please reach out to me at your convenience.

Managing Marriage
By Pastor Steve
It seems that spring is finally going to spring! I have worn my light jacket for a couple of days, even a day when I didn’t wear a jacket at all! The sun has been shining brightly with greater consistency. I have been able to play outside with the kids for more than thirty minutes! Yes, I think spring is finally here.
Spring brings about such wonderful new things. Flowers begin to break through the frozen soil. Birds return and bring with them their morning song. There are so many wonderful things that are signaled by this return of warmth and life. Yet, it also signals something else! The need to do a thorough cleaning! Spring cleaning is one of the only major chinks in spring’s armor (that and spring soccer). So, with the theme of spring cleaning, we turn our attention to a few things to clean out of our regular communication patterns in our relationships.
Sweep out any dishonesty. Keeping secrets only serves to break down trust and perplex your spouse. If there are things that you need to come clean about, always be bold enough to ask for forgiveness and strive for honesty. In your couple meeting, be brave and ask if there is anything you need to ask for forgiveness for!
Blow out the dead stuff. Just as leaves clog the gutters and dead grass chokes out the new, so our old issues clog up communication and choke out a healthy relationship. If there is an issue, don’t leave it swept under the rug; instead, take it out by offering real forgiveness – giving up the right to hold it against them and begin remembering the right way! I forgive you!
Wash off the grime of mind reading. There are many places in our relationships where we expect our spouse to “know” just what it is we want or expect. After all, there are times when they can finish our sentences. But if we wait for this alone, there will be times when the sentences never get finished, and our hopes and dreams will fall to the ground and crush our spirits. There are other times when we think we know just what our spouse is thinking – typically when we are dealing with an issue. This muddies the window of communication with grime so thick that it soon becomes our reality. We say things like, “I know why you said/did that…it’s because you…” These false realities, based upon our reading our spouse’s mind, rarely hold true. It’s time to get rid of the grime!
Finally, clean out the flammable threats that are common in arguments. There are many flammables that we use in arguments: things like ultimatums, blame, and the nasty “D” word. If you find yourself using these flammables to get your way, it is time to throw that habit out and replace it with a new marriage friendly tool! Assertiveness! “I” statements convey the same message without simply attacking your spouse (It looks like this: “In this situation, I feel ______ and would like you to ___________).” This averts blame and becomes an honest request (which may or not be met) that allows communication to remain open.
Above all else, this spring may you and your love find new life in your relationship, new growth in your marriage, and Christ walking with you every step of the way with His grace!

Time Tithing is back in April with one of our most enjoyable events: the Spring Cleanup with the Milwaukee River Keepers!
April Time Tithing - Milwaukee River Keepers Spring Cleanup
April 26, 2025 9am-noon
Webster Park 4521 N Mayfair Rd, Wauwatosa, WI 53225
Immanuel will be volunteering to clean up a portion of the Menomonee River, on Mayfair Rd in between Hampton and Capitol, from 9am to noon on Saturday, April 26. There is no limit to the amount of volunteers we can bring, so please come join us outside for some fresh air on a nice Spring morning! And if that isn’t nice enough for you, the River Keepers will give you a free T-shirt as well!
You can easily sign up at the link above. FYI, you will be asked to create a free account if you go that route.
Your other option is to call, text, or email Pastor Colby at (208) 599-3974 or chowell@immanuelbrookfield.org, tell him you would like to join and also what your T-shirt size is, and he can sign you up on his account.
We look forward to seeing you, getting outside, and helping clean up part of our city!
