Announcements for the week of July 12, 2009
July 10th, 2009 Posted in UncategorizedAttn Ladies: Change of Location-
The Grace Ladies picnic on Tuesday will be held at church at 6:00p.m. All Ladies of Grace are invited. Bring a dish to pass; dessert and beverage will be provided. If you are interested in pirate bingo, bring a $1.00 gift.
A Congregational Voters’ Meeting is scheduled for next Sunday, July 19 following the 10:30 a.m. Worship Service. We are looking to fill several positions including, Elders, Trustees, Financial and Recording Secretary.
You can find a job description of each of these positions in your bulletin. Please consider using your talents and running for one of these open positions.
There is a sign up sheet in the upstairs kitchen for bakers and/or servers for Coffee Fellowship throughout the summer. All funds received from the Summer Coffee Fellowship are matched by Thrivent Financial and allocated for our Vacation Bible School.
Bible Classes on Wednesday mornings at 9:30 and Sunday mornings at 9:00 WILL continue this summer with Pastor Sorenson. He invites all to participate!
If you know anyone interested in joining our congregation or just learning more about our Christian faith please have them contact pastor. He will be starting a new member class in the near future.
Vacation Bible School is almost here! There are still volunteer positions open; if you are willing to help, see Randy Broeker. 731-5687. Or you can help by picking up brochures in the narthex and inviting children to come!
VBS is collecting plastic (16oz. 1lb.) strawberry boxes for a craft project. There is a sample by Uncle Gadget in the chapel.
Our food pantry is VERY low on supplies, and we have families requesting aid. Donations of any type of non-perishable food items will be appreciated. We especially are in need of peanut butter, tuna, chunky soup, cereals, and canned meals (like ravioli). If you can help, leave your donations on the book nook in the chapel, or hand them to an usher. Thank you.
Our collection of socks and undergarments will continue through the summer. These items are distributed by local school nurses and the Community Mission after Labor Day. Donations can be left in the “Drop Your Drawers Here” box in the narthex. New items only, please (because of health laws).
Through your contributions to the mission fund at Grace, we reach out and support different missions locally, nationally, and international. Family and Children’s Services of Niagara is the special mission for July.
Many thanks to all my Grace friends for your prayers, cards & care. I’m mending, slowly! -Pastor B
