To The Unchurched
Get this straight! Faith
Lutheran Church is inter-
ested in you. Why? Not
because it has any ulterior
motives regarding you, not
because it wonts to "rope
you in," but only because
it hos a Treasure that it
wishes to share with you.
The Treasure is the Gospel
of Jesus Christ, who laid
down His life for you. Yes,
you! "Greater love hath no
man than this!" Faith Luth-
eran wishes to shore the
blessings of this Gospel with
you and your children.
Won't you bring your chil-
dren to Sunday School this
Sunday and stay yourselves
for Church Worship? A
new experience of fellow-
ship awaits you. Come!
