WELCOME TO THE NEW HOSANNA BLOG!

All outgoing, continuing, and incoming members of the Hosanna Congregation Council joined together in a retreat on Saturday, August 29, 2010. It was a Spirit-filled occasion as the participants shared their frustrations, hopes, and dreams for the future of Hosanna. It has set a wonderful tone for our next steps into the future, seeking to fulfill the mission of the church: "Growing to Serve and Praise the Living Christ."

One of the recommendations that came out of the session was to work at increasing the number of ways that the council communicates with the congregation. This blog is a step in that direction. You can also communicate back to the council by commenting on the posts that appear here.

Get to the blog through the Hosanna website, by typing in http://hosannalutheran.blogspot.com/ in your address bar, or by signing up as a "follower" of this blog.

Various council members will share this forum to keep you up to date and make it easy for you to get involved wherever the Spirit is calling you. We are waiting to hear from you!
