Luke 17:1-10 New International Version (NIV) Sin, Faith, Duty 17 Jesus said to his disciples: “Things that cause people to stumble are bound to come, but woe to anyone through whom they come. 2 It would be better for them to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around their neck than to cause one of these little ones to stumble. 3 So watch yourselves. “If your brother or sister sins against you, rebuke them; and if they repent, forgive them. 4 Even if they sin against you seven times in a day and seven times come back to you saying ‘I repent,’ you must forgive them.” 5 The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!” 6 He replied, “If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you. 7 “Suppose one of you has a servant plowing or looking after the sheep. Will he say to the servant when he comes in from the field, ‘Come along now and sit down to eat’? 8 Won’t he rather say, ‘Prepare my supper, get yourself ready and wait on me while I eat and drink; after that you may eat and drink’? 9 Will he thank the servant because he did what he was told to do? 10 So you also, when you have done everything you were told to do, should say, ‘We are unworthy servants; we have only done our duty.’” Holy Bible, New International Version®, NIV® Copyright ©1973, 1978, 1984, 2011 by Biblica, Inc.® Used by permission.

Scrip: Scrip is a great way for you to support Northdale Lutheran School without spending anything other than what you would normally spend. You raise money for NLS through your weekly purchases of gas and groceries as well as through those extra more irregular purchases. Here’s how it works: Let’s say you spend $100/week at Sam’s Club. Through Scrip, Sam’s Club gives 2.5% back to participating schools. So you buy a $100 gift card for $100 and Sam’s Club gives $2.50 to Northdale Lutheran. Many businesses give even more. The best way to participate is to order online at http://www.shopwithscrip.com using our unique enrollment code: 2BD4FDAL1328L. This may not seem like a lot, but over time and with many people participating it can add up to quite a lot. If you have further questions, you can contact our principal, Mark Thiesfeldt, and he will be glad to help. Thanks for supporting your Northdale Lutheran School. Don't Just "Like", "Share" also: We are working to increase our presence on social media and get into contact with more and more people. So when you see something on Facebook from Northdale Lutheran or you receive an email like this, in addition to hitting "Like", we encourage you also to "Share" the post to your Facebook timeline. It is amazing the type of reach we can have through social media in connecting with people and having the opportunity to share with them more of what we are about. You may not feel as comfortable having conversations with people about their Savior, but sharing a post or a picture or an announcement is an easy thing you can do right from your own home. The little thing of sharing helps us to have a much bigger presence and gets us into contact with more people. Thanks for your help in partnering together to share God's love with more people!
