Man shall not live by bread alone, but by, every word that pro- ceedeth ouf of the mouth of God. Matthew 4:4 Bread, and all of the food of this earth, nourishes the body. But the soul grows by the strength it receives from the Word of God. On bread, man lives until he dies. On the Word of God, he grows by faith to receive God's offer of eternal life through Christ Jesus. The Lutheran Church preaches Jesus Christ as the Bread of Life. Through human instruments God speaks his enlivening Word to dying men, In the Holy Sacraments, God makes the Word local to the human heart. The Lutheran Church invites you to feed your soul on the Word in scripture, sermon and Sacrament. ST. PETER'S LUTHERAN CHURCH -- Zurich REV. O. WINTER, Pastor MRS. J.
