Announcements for the week of March 22, 2009
THANK YOU to the Craft Group for sponsoring the “simple supper” last Wednesday. This Wed., March 25th Alice Moll will sponsor the “simple supper” at 6:00pm. Come. Enjoy! Bring a friend! Worship with us at 7pm too!
CREATING OUR FUTURE for Grace Lutheran discussions are almost completed. The last one will be this Thursday, March 26th at 6:30 p.m. If you know of people who have not yet participated, please encourage them to do so. We will have a better future if & when we work together as people serving God!
The Youth are hosting a Pampered Chef demonstration next Sunday after the worship service. Everyone is invited to attend and bring friends. This is a great fundraiser. If you cannot attend, but would like to see a catalog or place an order, please see or call Cathy Hoffman 298-1174.
Thank you for your help in making our collection for Hannah House a huge success! We collected over 107 stuffed animals, and 270 toiletries for a total of 377 items that we were able to deliver to Hannah House. All of these items will be distributed by this privately funded outreach on Ferry Avenue in Niagara Falls, along with the message of God’s love and salvation. The toiletries are given to homeless and indigent women and the stuffed animals go to their children in foster care.
The 9:00 a.m. Sunday Adult Bible class is discussing “Great Chapters in the Bible!” There is room for YOU! Come!
Mr. Randy Broeker is teaching the Sunday morning youth confirmation class during this Lenten season! Thank you!
If you know of a fellow member who is hospitalized, has changed their phone number or address… please phone the church office immediately. Thanks!
Sunday School students are collecting change through Easter for the Penny War. Pennies earn them points, and they can put silver coins in other class banks to take away points. The winning class receives a reward and the total collected will be used for a mission project through Lutheran World Relief. Adults wishing to participate may do so by giving change to a Sunday School student, or placing change in containers available in the chapel and narthex.
What We Learned in Sunday School Today… “The Widow’s Mite” serves as the focus of the Sunday School lesson for today. Just as the widow gave all she had to God, trusting Him to provide and care for her, so Jesus gave His all for us, who fail to trust in God for all things. Consider discussing, “How was the widow’s offering different from the others? How has God given us His greatest treasure?”
