Sandy
has emailed you about our computer network problems. Now that we’re finally back up, I’ll
just offer an abbreviated version of my Midweek
Reminders…
ONGOING
AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST: This
youth-based group from the LCMS will be with us for the weekend of
October
12
–
14. Please see information in the bulletin
this coming Sunday. One thing to
think about especially: we expect
an OAC group of between 9 and 15 to be with us, and they will all need
housing plus breakfast on Friday and Saturday nights. There is a sign-up sheet on the main
bulletin board. Please, if you can
help with this obligation, sign up now.
Questions? Contact Jonet
Schutz.
NEW
ADULT BIBLE CLASS: My
Sunday morning class is off to a good start! Don’t feel excluded, however, if you’ve
missed the first few weeks. Each
session is complete in itself, so you can easily slide in to participate in this
DVD-based class entitled, “Jesus and the Gospels”. Each session begins with a 30 minute
lecture by Prof Luke Timothy Johnson, which leaves us the final half of the hour
for discussion. Join us at
8:45am
sharp each Sunday in the Commons
Room.
FOOD
DRIVE IN PROGRESS: “This
one’s for Bev!” is our rallying point for our current food drive. Pressure on Marion Polk Food Share has
never been greater, and we’ve got a great history of generous giving of food for
them to disburse to the poor and hungry of our area. Please bring as much food as you can
afford, drop it off at church. Our
final day for gathering the food is Sunday, Sept. 30. We’re hoping to top 1,000 pounds!! It’s all for Bev…and for the people who
need the food…and all in the name of Jesus.
Thanks!
CONGREGATIONAL
MEETING
has been
postponed from this Sunday until September
30, right
after worship. We’ll do our best to
run this meeting in an hour or less!
Please come and participate.
We need your voice!
SAYING
THANK YOU!! Did you
know that every week on Tuesday evening our youth gather for Christian growth,
food, and fun? Hats off and hands
together for Pam King, our youth counselor, and also to those who provide great
support for our youth! Give a big
hug and heartfelt Thank You to Pam and Jan Shearer and Jonet Schutz and all
other who help with our youth ministry.
