American Ev. Lutheran Church
A welcoming, affirming and inclusive church in Tucson!

February 24, 2026:  Tuesday Bible Study on Acts 13:13 Good morning. I am hopeful that you find this somewhat overly warm weather a pleasant surprise considering the cold and rainy weather we had just a few weeks ago. In our prayers for today I ask that we all pray for the unknown people around us who need prayers for their health, economy, safety, and more. I did announce on Sunday that the Church Council action to order whistles for anyone who would like to be carrying one h

February 23, 2026:  Monday Bible Study on Acts 13:4-12 Blessings and Peace be with you today. Today we should all continue to pray for those who have been mistreated by the ICE troops, and the Border Patrol and others. Pray for those immigrants in our midst who are interred in terrible conditions, even when they have lived and worked in our communities for years with no criminal records. They are not the worst of the worst, but their families, including young children, have b

February 17, 2026:  Tuesday Bible Study on Acts 13:1-3 Good morning on this rainy blessing for our desert. This winter really reminds me of winters when we first arrived in Tucson, and the call to serve Gospel of Jesus Christ at American Lutheran. Winter mornings were usually quite a bit colder than this winter has been, but it was the winter rain that was always so wonderful. We had great generous showers on the southeast side of town today. I want to remind you this morning

February 16, 2026:  Monday Bible Study on Acts 12:20-25 May the LORD'S blessings surround you today, and always, and may the courage of your faith sustain you for all the ins and outs of life in this time in our world. Thank you for your continuing prayer support for members of our congregation. Please keep Pastor Ron and Becky in your prayers as they meet the need for some monthly medical treatments while figuring out if they will be able to get to Tucson at all this winter.

February 9, 2026:  Monday Bible Study on Acts 11:27-30 Good morning, and blessings for you and yours on this wonderful warm desert morning here in Tucson. It has been an exciting weekend with the UA men's basketball team continuing their undefeated record, and, of course, all the excitement of the Winter Olympics in Italy. Of course, we are in the midst of the world's largest gem show too, and coming soon will be the largest non-mechanized parade in the U.S.A. with rodeo at t

February 3, 2026:  Tuesday Bible Study on Acts 11:22-26 Good morning my dear Bible Study group. Today please remember to pray for Joyce and Larry who have suffered a serious breach of personal information, and have had their finances, and even their home in danger. This morning Joyce is trying to come up with $1500.00 to stop an auction on their new home. This has been a very difficult time for them. If I seemed to be a little off this past week including Sunday, I have been

February 2, 2026:  Monday Bible Study on Acts 11:19-21 We are all living in the warmth and light of our Savior Jesus Christ. May our hope and trust in Christ fill our lives and truly create in us a desire to offer invitations for others to join us surrounded by God's Grace and Love. That is called evangelism. We seem to often be afraid of it, but as we look at our passage from the Acts of the Apostles today, this is exactly the means by which the early church grew and expande

January 26, 2026:  Monday Bible Study on Acts 11:1-10 May the peace of the Lord be with you this morning, and throughout the entire day! Good morning my dear study friends. It is good to be back with you this Monday. I ask you for prayers today for the Olivas family, former members of American who moved to Phoenix to be close to their daughter's family and the grandchildren. We received word on Sunday, right after church, that Joyce Olivas had become a heavenly triumphant sai

January 20, 2026:  Tuesday Bible Study on Acts 10:44-48 Good morning, and may your day be filled with the LORD'S richest blessings of Grace and Comfort. This morning, I would ask you to pray with thanksgiving to God for Roy's and Christina's birthdays this week.  We are also quickly approaching the 76th birthday of our congregation.  Pray for Americans continuing ministry for the Gospel of Jesus Christ, remembering that it takes all of us in dedication to the work to which th
