MOST PREP SAT CLASS
Faith Lutheran is proud to announce a new SAT preparation partnership with the founder and president of MostPrep, Mike Obstgarten. He will be running 6-week prep courses at 6:45 to 9:15pm in room 216 for juniors and seniors specifically for the SAT starting this summer for $600. Students interested in prepping for the ACT should still take this course as the exams are now similar enough that specific ACT courses are not necessary. This full-length course provides ample instruction and review of the concepts most frequently tested on the SAT, as well as the coaching and implementation of the test-taking techniques that have been proven to work, all while dispelling common myths and reassuring students that the task in front of them is not as daunting as it might seem. To sign up please fill out the form at this link a minimum of 2 weeks prior to the start of the class you are interested in. REGISTER The total $600 for the class will be added to your tuition bill once the class has begun. Contact Mr. Buikema at buikemad@flhsemail.org or Mike directly at mostprep@gmail.comwith questions.

DEVOTIONAL
Encourage one another with these words. (1 Thessalonians 4:18)
In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. Suffering and sadness are part of our lot in this fallen world. Particularly painful is the death of loved ones. And all too often, the very words of comfort from others ring hollow in our ears. We don’t care if Grandma is “in the arms of Jesus” after a long illness. It makes no difference that a close friend who died in an auto accident or from a drug overdose is “in a better place.”
We hurt and we want—we need—to let the pain out. Paul knew this and he knew that expressing our grief isn’t intrinsically sinful. Even Jesus mourned over Lazarus’s death and the pain of Mary and Martha.
Yet while we weep, we experience a different sorrow than do others “who have no hope.” Great love generates great pain when the object of our affection dies, but an even greater love comforts us. Christ’s resurrection isn’t only an historic fact. It’s a present hope and a future certainty for every believer.
Our beloved friends and family will likely sleep much longer than three days in their tombs but they will eventually hear Jesus’ voice calling them to rise to life everlasting. And whether alive or dead, we’ll also respond to His call and join them in the resurrection.
The sorrow of separation and the pain of love being ripped from our hearts will vanish. Our final union with Christ in glory includes reunion with believing family and friends. Nothing will sunder us either from them or from the One who gave Himself into death that we might have life without end. In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. -Rev. Walter Snyder
Almighty God, by the glorious resurrection of Your Son, Jesus Christ, You destroyed death and brought life and immortality to light. Grant that we who have been raised with Him may abide in His presence and rejoice in the hope of eternal glory; through the same Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.
