1. Resurrection Lutheran -– Where are we Going? Planting Seeds for the Future! Gospel of Mark Chapter 4… Still others, like seed sown among thorns, hear the word; but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth and the desires for other things come in and choke the word, making it unfruitful. Others, like seed sown on good soil, hear the word, accept it, and produce a crop--thirty, sixty or even a hundred times what was sown." Our Mission “For all to know the unconditional love of God; grow in relationship with Jesus, others, and self; and share this love through word and deed.”
