Dear Christian Friends,

We are extraordinarily blessed to have the Rev. Dr. Steven P. Mueller serving as our assisting pastor! He is also a member of our congregation. He will be preaching this Sunday, May 13th, the Sixth Sunday of Easter and Mother’s Day of course! Dr. Mueller is an ordained clergyman of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod and the Dean of Christ College Irvine at Concordia University, Irvine. He is an exceptional and truly gifted teacher of the saving faith of the Lord Jesus Christ. He has many published works including Not A Tame God: Christ in the Writings of C.S. Lewis (CPH, 2002), he is the editor of Called to Believe, Teach, and Confess: An Introduction to Doctrinal Theology (Wipf and Stock, 2005), and he was one of the principal assistant editors for The Lutheran Study Bible (CPH, 2009). He will be preaching on the Gospel for this Sunday which is John 15:9-17. Dr. Mueller’s sermon is entitled, “Abiding in His Love” and it will take us to the greatest love that the Lord has for you! This message is the essence of our faith which will feed and uplift your soul! Come to receive Christ this Sunday and be renewed in the saving faith!

In Your Service and To Christ’s Glory,

Rev. Dr. Espinosa
