v "" * UJIT w.; ** What we some of the IIISIC PRINCIPLES of the UMBRAS Creed? Lutheran faith does not differ from the common Christian faith described in the New Testament /pH stated in the Apostles’ Creed. We are all created by God, but too often we employ our God-given freedom to disobey our Creator. Tragedy in human life is the result. God still does not abandon us. A new life is possible for you too through Christ who rose victoriously from the dead. This new life is nourished by His Word and Sacraments. That is why God established the church.

Your county ranks very high in the savings bonds record books. “The buyers of savings in your community have not only helped their government by assisting the treasury in its program of national debt management, but while creating personal security, have been creating community business stability by assuring a substantial backlog of future buying power. These facts are recognized by the nation’s leading financial authorities. “To you, your county’s bankers, newspapers and to all who have made this success possible, we extend not only congratulations, but our sincere thanks for a job well done."
