CHURCH OFFICE will be closed this Monday, January 16th for the federal holiday.
ATTENDANCE SHEETS found in the bulletin will assist us in making sure that all of our members are being cared for as needed during our vacancy. Please fill them out EACH WEEK and place them in the offering plate.
NEEDED: Please don’t throw out the Christmas cards you received this year. Used cards, or new cards you no longer need, can be placed in the box on the shelf of the coatroom marked “Christmas cards”. We will be using the pictures from your cards for an upcoming project.
PASTOR BRESE has shared that he once had the opportunity to help unload much needed supplies sent by Orphan Grain Train to an isolated area of Nicaragua. January mission envelopes are designated to support this Christian volunteer network that ships donated food, clothing, medical and other needed supplies to people in the United States and around the world. Pastor Brese would be glad to answer any questions you may have about the great work they do. Orphan Grain Train is a recognized service organization of LCMS. If you would like to support their work, please place your mission envelope in the offering plate during January or donate to “monthly mission” online at www.gracenf.org.
