HIGH SCHOOL
We know Apple will be releasing the next Operating System (OS) soon. This is MacOS 11 and called Big Sir. Please DO NOT UPGRADE TO IT!
It is a major upgrade/change and as of right now some of the software we use will need time to get their software compatible with the OS.
We will send out an email when it is O.K. to upgrade, but we cannot stress this enough, DO NOT UPGRADE to Big Sur (MacOS 11).
Any high school boy interested in playing golf needs to stop by and see Coach Cheney in room 216 after school this week.

HS Sports Physical Reminder
All students planning to participate in sports at Faith Lutheran must have a physical and create an account on Register My Athlete, (www.registermyathlete.com.) The physical can be done by their pediatrician or at a CVS or Walgreens clinic. Physical forms and instructions can be obtained on the Resources Board on Crusader Connect as well as on Register My Athlete. Once you register for a sport on RMA, you will be able to print off the forms to bring to the physician. Once sports get started, every student looking to participate will need a certificate of completion from RM. To ensure your student is able to participate in practices when they start back up, we recommend you complete your Registration with Register My Athlete (RMA) by October 30, 2020. If you are a TRANSFER student, please complete your RMA Registration ASAP. This process can take some time. If you have any questions please contact Cindy Sideco at cindy.sideco@flhsemail.org or 702-804-4425. (12/31)

Today's Reading: Malachi 4:1-6
Daily Lectionary: Isaiah 24:14-25:12; 1 John 2:15-29
Daily Lectionary: Isaiah 24:14-25:12; 1 John 2:15-29
For behold, the day is coming, burning like an oven, when all the arrogant and all evildoers will be stubble. (Malachi 4:1a)
In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. The mere thought of God's judgment can strike fear into our hearts. And why shouldn't it? Consider the evil we have done and the sins that have entangled us. How many times have we promised God we would improve, but never have? The liturgy has taught us our place. We always offend God. We justly deserve His present and eternal punishment. It would be the height of arrogance to ever confess otherwise. "'The day that is coming shall set them ablaze,' says the LORD of hosts, 'so that it will leave them neither root nor branch'" (Malachi 4:1b). On that day, our righteousness will be scorched earth.
How different the promise of the Gospel. "But for you who fear my name, the sun of righteousness shall rise with healing in its wings. You shall go out leaping like calves from the stall" (Malachi 4:2). Picture this. All the joy, and strength, and energy. So it will be for us on that day. For someone has opened the gate for us. Jesus kept the Law perfectly for us. He then died a perfect death for us upon the Cross, covering all our sin with His own blood. Jesus then rose from the dead for us with "healing in His wings." And you have learned to trust in that healing, in that grace and forgiveness, because Jesus washes you in it every day now in Baptism, places it into your ears in the Absolution and sermons you hear in church, and even feeds you with it at His Supper with His Body and Blood, "for you, for the forgiveness of sins." There is your healing. There is your righteousness. For there is your Jesus. Remembering Moses and the Law, we despair over our own righteousness, over anything and everything we ever are, think, say, or do. Such despair is wholesome. For we now face that day in the glad and joyful confidence of Jesus. Not in ourselves--only in Jesus.
If the pandemic has taught me anything, it's that my righteousness isn't with me on earth but with Jesus, because He is my righteousness. He is yours, too. As if it was Christmas every day, Jesus comes to us with the promise of eternal life in His Word, in His water and at His Supper--promising we have our Father's welcome, forgiveness, love, and embrace on that day. And that strikes joy, now, in our hearts. Imagine all the strength and energy it will bring on that Last Day! In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.
A banner of God's love unfurled, Christ came to suffer loss, That by His death a dying world Would rally to the cross. ("What Hope! An Eden Prophesied" LSB 342, st.3)
