The Inside message was based on Joshua 1:7-9, 
one of the readings for the service.

Pastor Blanke shared in the Resurrection newsletter:

"An ordination service reminds all who witness it that no matter what a pastor does...whether teaching, preaching, performing counseling services,working with youth, evangelizing in his neighborhood, or some other function...his vocation is to bring the Word of God and the Sacraments of the Church to people in their time of need. Pastor Alan's willing spirit of service and dedication to the personal care of those in our church and church community have served and will serve him well as he transitions to this new--yet familiar--role among us. His preparation as a Stephen Leader and Christian Reconciler also bring practical skills that will enhance his work in his chosen ministry path." 

 May the Lord bless Pastor Shaw in his ministry at Resurrection Lutheran Church.
