Catechism Assignment for November 12, 2025

Fifth Commandment:  You shall not murder.  What does this mean?

We should fear and love God that we do not hurt or harm our neighbor in his body, but help and befriend him in every bodily need.


Reminder:

Saturday, November 15we plan to have our students tour our ministerial training college, Martin Luther College, in New Ulm.  Keith Barta will drive. Any parents that wish to come along may drive, too. Plan to meet at 9:45 a.m. at church for an 11:00 a.m. tour, followed by lunch in MLC's cafeteria (which is always a highlight for youth). There is a football game afterward at 1:00 p.m., in case the group wishes to stay for part of that game, too.  I have a noon service, so will be unable to attend this year, but am hoping the Saturday time will make this educational, fun event accessible to everyone else.
