Resurrection Parish Easter/Spring Decorating Donation

Sanctuary Crucifix
This crucifix is generating quite a bit of interest for its beauty and history. It's been moved from the east entrance to the sanctuary; a wonderful place to be viewed and appreciated! It shows how contributions can last more than a lifetime.
The German translates to "In memory of their Mother Anna by the Family of Albert Gundrum." Cemetery records show Anna M Gundrum died in1917; her husband Albert died in 1928. The couple had eleven children. Three parishioners are great-grandchildren. Maybe you know of others?

“Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain.” – Psalm 127:1
God did indeed bless us as we worked to renew our sacred space. All those involved could feel the Spirit’s guidance and can share stories of how “bumps in the road” were managed through prayer and patience. Collaborative
efforts of many, kept the project on schedule making this truly a fulfilling and rewarding experience. The goal was to create a traditional church interior by accenting the architectural features. Beautiful stained-glass windows, artwork, and soothing colors reflect a sacred and inviting atmosphere for worship and contemplation. As these doors are reopened, may the visible improvements be evidence that God’s favor transformed generous contributions into a meaningful and lasting dwelling place for generations to come!
