Rock News

As a part of the Rock’s Ministry Plan for this year, we are going to host a couple of bridge events, which will be opportunities for us to connect with our Seward community, by sharing Jesus through acts of service and fellowship, as we have done in the past. If you have ideas for an event, or are willing to help plan and organize an event, please contact Pastor, or one of the directors (Scott Seevers, Tim Moll, Matt Myers, Emmie Moll, Wayne Bruns, Jeremy Hogue) and let them know.


Did you forget your donation items last week? You can still bring them this Sunday! Concordia University’s Guatemala Health and Medical Mission Team is collecting hygiene supplies to take on their March trip. They will be traveling to the same area that The Rock’s mission team worked at in Amatitlan, Guatemala. They will be hosting a health fair in two different villages where they will teach the villagers about a variety of health topics including dental hygiene, hand washing, parasite prevention, nutrition, and spiritual health. They need: bars of soap, new hand towels, toothbrushes, toothpaste.  If you are able to purchase needed items or have any of these products laying around your house that you won’t use (perhaps you bought the wrong brand of something and won’t use it OR the toothbrush your dentist gave you isn’t the type you prefer OR you are an extreme couponer and have a stockpile in your basement OR you collect hotel soap), they’ll take it!!  


The Guatemala Mission team will be hosting a taco & nacho bar meal before our Ash Wednesday service. Join us starting at 5:30 for dinner (free will offering will be collected for the mission team) before the service starts at 6:30. 

Instead of dropping off your children for Stepping Stones and FaithInk, please join them and attend the family friendly Ash Wednesday service (with the imposition of ashes) that evening. No childcare provided.


We haven’t needed to deal with snow much this winter, but we’re always looking for service-minded humans who are willing to use our new snow blower.  We have a new, powerful snow blower to clear sidewalks this winter (as well as a smaller unit)!  We are in need of volunteers to serve on a side-walk clearing crew.  Weekend (for Sundays) and week-day slots are open.  Even if you can only help on occasion, please contact danna.seevers@gmail.com to discuss how you can help.


Forever Family, the youth attending the NYG is so grateful for the support of our for envelope wall fundraiser so far!  We would love to have every envelope filled by EASTER SUNDAY (empty envelope wall on the day we celebrate the empty tomb!) Please consider a financial contribution to assist the youth attending the 2022 LCMS National Youth Gathering in Houston, TX! The envelope donation fundraiser is currently underway to assist with expenses for the youth and adult leaders to the NYG in Houston in July! Simply choose an envelope and give the corresponding amount (in dollars $$$) marked on the envelope. Fill your envelope and drop in the box! There are literally a hundred ways to give. No donation is too small! Questions? Contact Jen Axt by email: jen.axt@gmail.com or phone: (308) 631-7065.  Thank you for supporting our youth!
