Our pastor, Rev. Kory Janneke, has accepted a Divine Call to serve as the next pastor of St. Matthew Lutheran Church in Conway, Arkansas. Pastor Kory's farewell services in Warrens will be on Wednesday, May 4 at 6:30pm and Sunday, May 8 at 9:15am. Pastor Kory will be installed at his new church in Arkansas on Sunday, May 15. Please pray for both St. Matthew, Warrens and St. Matthew, Conway during this time of transition. Please contact our Head Elder, Kevin Eckelberg, with any questions regarding the forthcoming pastoral call process.

 Please join us for our 9:15am service on Sun, May 1. The service will include the rite of confirmation for seven young ladies of our congregation: Grace Bardeen, Abby Beck, Kira Claussen, Allegra Meacham, Kylie Moake, Elizabeth Steep, and Kadence Walker. Please pray for these young people as they are confirmed in their baptismal faith in Christ and as they continue to walk with Him throughout the years to come! The service will be followed by fellowship and refreshments (cupcakes & drinks) in St. Matthew's Fellowship Hall.

On Sunday, April 24, St. Matthew will have a unique Gospel Music Service at 9:15am. The service will include many beloved Gospel songs, such as "Give Me Jesus,"  "His Eye is On the Sparrow,"  "What a Friend We Have in Jesus," and many more. Pastor will also have a brief message for us entitled "Words of Life" (based on Acts 5:20). Please plan to join us on the 24th and invite your friends and loved ones to join you as we hear and sing the Gospel message!
