Building Healthy Families: They number 16.5 million in the United States and make up over 6% of our population and there might be one sitting next to you right now. Look around and see a Veteran! Thank him or her for their service, on behalf of all who have benefited from their dedication and selfless sacrifice. May God grant His peace to our troubled world, and to the hearts, minds and lives of all who have served our country. On Veteran’s Day this Tuesday and every day, we love our veterans! Lutheran Family Service  www.LutheranFamilyService.org

Building Healthy Families: Despite living with physical, emotional and financial challenges and through social and political upheaval which often separated them by many miles and at times threatened life itself, Martin & Katie Luther created and sustained a marriage and family life characterized by faithfulness, mutual respect, teamwork and a good degree of humor. As we remember and give thanks for the great reformer and the blessing that his life and work have been to the church, we also give thanks for God’s work in their lives which provides us with an example of Christian family life today. May the lives and marriage of Martin and Katie and their love for their children (and other people’s children!) remind us of Christ's love for his church and of the Father's great love for us, His redeemed children. Lutheran Family Service  www.LutheranFamilyService.org
