Devotion: Use this resource at home to guide your household’s daily devotions. You
can do this alone, as a couple, as a family; in the morning,
during the day, or at night. Find a routine that works best for you.
Pray: Light a candle and open your devotion time with a prayer.
God of plenty, show us the wealth of heaven that is ours because you are a generous God of abundant blessings. Stir our hearts to desire more of you and less
of what we can obtain in this world, for the glory of your son, Jesus. Amen.
Reflect: Reflect on the key verses from Sunday’s reading.
[Jesus said,] “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust consume and
where thieves break in and steal; but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor
rust consumes and where thieves do not break in and steal.” Matthew 6:19-20
Study: Study the reading and consider the background.
In any culture and in any time, the accumulation of more is a temptation. The religious leaders of
Jesus’ day professed to live rightly, praying publically eloquent prayers and acquiring praise and accolades for their “righteousness.” Their desire for more was misplaced, as their desires could only be
met with material goods or praise from others. Jesus didn’t want empty words or rituals. Jesus wanted action. He wanted people to treat each other with kindness and generosity, and to speak with God
honestly and authentically. Jesus encouraged people to seek treasure that would last far beyond the
years on this earth. He showed that investing in God would pay far more dividends than investing in
anything we can receive in this world.
Read: Read the following daily readings to deepen your understanding of Sunday’s text. After the reading, ask
the follow-up questions.
Follow these stories of Jesus’ miracles, teachings, and healings.
Sunday, Matthew 6:7-21 (and/or Matthew 6:25-34), Treasure in Heaven
Monday, Psalm 20:7, Psalm
Tuesday, Matthew 7:1-29, Teachings of Jesus
Wednesday, Matthew 8:1-17, Healings of Jesus
Thursday, Matthew 8:18-27, Miracles of Jesus
Friday, Matthew 8:28-9:8, Healings of Jesus
Saturday, Matthew 9:9-17, Call of Matthew
How are Jesus’ miracles, teachings, and healings connected? What do they tell people about Jesus’
role in the world?
Connect: Connect in conversation with others in your household. Discuss the following questions, or simply
check in with “Highs” and “Lows.”
What was a high point of your day? What was a low point?
How is the accumulation of more encouraged in your community? What media or messages could
you stop listening to so that you could limit your exposure to those messages?
Name three things you wish you had more of. Reflect on how the desire for more shapes your behaviors and attitudes.
Do: By acting on what we learn, we make God’s word come alive. Do the following activity this week.
Limit your exposure to TV, internet, and other media this week. First, notice how you spend that recovered time. Second, notice how you feel after limited exposure to messages that encourage the accumulation of more.

Family Promise of Western Waukesha County
Family Promise needs YOU! We are looking for more volunteers!
We have had 2 very successful hosting weeks and we are well on our way to developing a “routine!” Thanks to
all who have helped this far with meals, their time, etc. BUT—we still need more people to help us out. The
larger “pool” of volunteers we have, the easier it will be to meet the needs of the guest and fulfill our obligation
to this wonderful ministry.
So what can YOU do?
Talk to others in the congregation who are already volunteers. Look for those folks wearing the Family
Promise badges!
Attend one of the upcoming trainings. They only take about 1½ to 2 hours, and you only need to complete
it one time. Dates for upcoming trainings:
Sunday March 1st
At First Congregational UCC-Oconomowoc
815 S. Concord Rd. 53066
--OR-Tuesday March 10th
At Oakwood Community Church
3041 Oakwood Rd. Hartland 53029
Please see the sign up sheet on the kiosk in the narthex if you can attend either training.
Sign up for a shift (or two) when our next hosting week comes around!
Other Family Promise news:
As many of you know, our guest Amanda is expecting a baby boy on February 26th. Amanda has found a studio
apartment and moves in February 1st. We want to send her off with everything she needs for her baby. Amanda
has already collected a few items and has support through other agencies such as safe babies and healthy families; so you will notice they are not on the list.
Shower information:
Date: Sunday, 2/8/15
Time: 1:30 -3:30
Location: Delafield Presbyterian Church
RSVP via sign up genius (The link is listed below)
We have created a sign up form via sign up genius that lists all of Amanda's needs for the baby. We are asking for slightly used items in good, clean and working condition or new items. The sign up is very simple, all you do is select RSVP you then enter your information. Then you can RSVP to attend the event,
or RSVP to only bring a gift. http://www.signupgenius.com/go/20f0e4ba9a62aa5fe3-baby/

Pastors Wayne and Christa visiting us this summer!!
Our previous pastors who are now Missionaries in Hong Kong, will be coming to visit us this
summer. Pastors Wayne Nieminen and Christa Von Zychlin are giving us first dibs on their
preaching schedule and they will be visiting us here at Our Savior’s on June 28th—9:00 a.m.
Every two years they have the opportunity to visit some of their sponsoring congregations,
sharing a bit about their lives and what God is doing in the churches and missions of china
and other Southeast Asian countries. (Their blog is on our website under Outreach)
Pastors Wayne and Christa were pastors here at Our Savior’s for many years, and we support
them through our Outreach Missions and support of the ELCA Global Church Sponsorship.
A picture of them is located on our bulletin board in the hallway by the kitchen.
Mark your calendars for June 28th and come to support our Missionaries from Hong Kong.
Christa wrote us another note regarding their trip back home to Wisconsin. They are in need
of a dependable car to use for up to ten weeks this summer. See her request below:
“ We're asking congregations to put the word out that we are in need of a dependable car if anyone
has one to lend us for up to ten weeks of the summer! This is always an issue each year since we
don't have a car nor relatives with an extra. Even a few weeks could be a big help. I'll write this in the
general letter to congregations, too. We will be travelling to Iowa and all around Wisconsin and Illinois.
We may need to go out to Ohio, where we also have several sponsoring churches. It's a huge thing to
ask, but it's a real need.” - Christa

What is God’s vision for Our Savior’s Evangelical Lutheran Church?
Our Core Values, which shape everything we do, continue to be:
“Bible Based, Saved by Grace, Serving with Jesus Everyplace”
Our primary focus for future direction:
1. Life-Giving Weekly Worship—The weekly worship gathering is the core reason we exist as a
Church.
2. Service Adventures with the Poor and the Poor in Spirit—We believe that God transforms us
through personal relationships with the poor, the wounded and the weak, who so often reveal God’s
richness, health, and strength.
3. Enriching and Renewing Christian Households and Marriages—God created human beings with
a deep longing for intimate bonds. Research has shown that stable, loving families are the optimal
environment for children's health and the development of society. Therefore, we believe that our
church should do everything possible to strengthen families & enrich marriages in our community.
Visitors

It is a blessing to see babies and children worshipping
together with their families on Sunday mornings! Our
supervised nursery is provided on Sunday mornings
for parents who feel their children may need a little
extra attention during the service. Parents are especially encouraged to bring their children forward with
them for communion. Children not yet receiving
communion will receive a blessing.
Holy Communion
We welcome all believing Christians to receive
Christ's body and blood at the altar, regardless of
age or denominational background. Infants and
children whose families consider them too young
for communion or those who do not wish to commune because of conscience or questions are invited forward to receive a blessing. Please take an
