The Swedlanda Sunday School Christmas Program









After being delayed a week by a snowstorm, the Sunday School Christmas Program was finally held at Swedlanda. An unlikely angel narrated the tale. Following the morning's activities, the Esther Circle held their Christmas program.

The Big Blizzard of December 2010

Snowfall and high winds made it necessary to cancel Sunday morning worship and the Sunday School Christmas Program. On Saturday evening, someone got stuck in front of the church in the drifted snow; after an hour or so, they were able to get out with the help of a tractor. On Sunday morning, the plow arrived before 8 a.m., but no parking was available until faithful snow blowers arrived to clean everything up. You could say it was a storm of Biblical proportions, but it would be an overstatement. Hopefully, it will be possible to have the the Sunday School Christmas Program next Sunday.

Blessings,
Pastor Stewart

Advent Event at Swedlanda


Our Annual Advent Event was great. Many came for worship followed by a silent/live auction, lunch and church decorating. Doris Johnson provided a beautiful banner for the season also. We also introduced a new project through the ELCA Good Gifts program: a new well which will provide clean water for a village. We are raising $2,500 for the project.

Workday at Swedlanda!













On Tuesday, the Men of Swedlanda arrived to clean up branches and trees on the grounds of the church and parsonage. As you can see, they brought plenty of equipment with them.
