Get to know the “Touchdown” church

Join us on Wednesday, Aug. 25, at 7 p.m. for a time to focus on telling the story of Lutheran Church in the Foothills (LCIF), to focus on inviting people to our church, and to hear/see an excellent video by Rev. Stephen G. Marsh. The video is of a presentation by Rev. Marsh that was made at the Southwest California Synod Assembly in June. There will also be ice cream with a variety of toppings!
