SOTH offering GriefShare

3/3/2021

Join us for GriefShare at Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church (SOTH) as our group walks alongside you through one of life’s most difficult experiences – grieving the death of a family member or friend and seeking peace after loss. The group will be led by two church members who have experienced loss and previously participated in this grief recovery group.

The group will meet weekly for 13 weeks - Tues., Mar. 23rd through Tues., June 15th - to support those experiencing the loneliness and confusion that loss entails. Church location is 1350 Hwy 175 Hubertus WI 53033.

Thousands of groups meet weekly around the world. Visit or join our group at any time, and attend as many meetings as you like. With the support of the group leaders, a video series, and personal study/reflection, attendees can hope to face their challenges and move toward rebuilding their lives. Workbooks provided at no cost.

Shepherd of The Hills Church - Richfield

2/2/2021

Winter Outdoor Worship
Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church in Richfield, WI

Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church in Richfield, on Hwy 175, has been holding outdoor worship all winter to serve those in the congregation who are yet uncomfortable entering the church building for the indoor worship, or who do not wish to wear a mask.

Pastor Mike Matzek, new to Shepherd of the Hills, has faithfully served this population that averages 30-40 persons each Sunday at 9:30am in the open outdoor Pavilion building. Shepherd of the Hills is likely the only church in Washington Co. hosting outdoor worship in the Wisconsin winter. It is a shorter service where people keep their coats, hats and mittens on, bring blankets, hand warmers and a thermos of coffee or hot chocolate - a type of tailgating with a higher purpose!

Outdoor worship took place on the property all summer with large crowds, and it continued into the dropping temperatures, including 62 people attending the 1 pm outdoor Christmas Eve worship in 14 degree temperatures! With the snowstorm this past Sunday, 24 persons attended (see attached photo).

Letter to the Editor

7/20/2020

The following letter was sent to Richfield Today on July 20, 2020.

Why I Can’t Vote for Biden

As I listen to the anti Trump hate, I wonder if anyone wants a President that will fight for the people.

I can’t and will not vote to have my rights taken away. Here are some of the reasons I will not vote for Biden:
- During Biden’s first term in the Senate, he actively fought integration of busing and schooling between black and white students. He has a long history of racial profiling.
-Joe Biden supports terrorist agendas to destroy our country.
- Joe Biden supports eliminating prison sentences for all nonviolent criminals (this would include nonviolent offenses like child sex trafficking).
- Joe Biden supports socialism rather than capitalism. He wants Government to be in charge of our lives.
-Joe Biden supports China which has and will continue to destroy American jobs.
-Joe Biden wants to defund our police, which will leave us with a country without Law & Order. How safe will we be under his presidency?
-Joe Biden said he will raise our taxes and the middle class will suffer.
-Joe Biden in 2016 blackmailed the Ukrainian minster into firing a prosecutor and was proud of it. Anyone want this type of President?
-For 8 years as Vice President, Joe Biden never did anything to improve the lives of black Americans.

To my fellow Wisconsin citizens – I’m begging you to do your homework before you vote. Understand what your vote means to this country. I’m voting for liberty, justice and a free country. Therefore I’m voting for Donald Trump for President.
