TWO WEEKS UNTIL LABOR DAY!! We are accepting donations of school supplies, craft supplies, socks, and underwear through Labor Day weekend. Craft supplies will be donated in September to POTTERS FIELD 99 on Highland Avenue, a group of Christian adults that provides mentoring and activities several times a week for children with limited or inadequate parental supervision. School supplies and clothing items will be distributed to children in need by the teachers and nurses at HARRY ABATE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL in Niagara Falls. There are tables available in the chapel and narthex for your donations.
ALMOST HALF of our Envelope Fundraiser envelopes have been taken from the white board in the chapel. There are still plenty of opportunities to donate toward our new boiler by choosing an envelope and placing the filled envelope in the offering plate. Please continue to support our “Warm Hearts, Warm Toes” fundraising campaign as you are able.
AID FOR MAUI: LCMS Disaster Response is responding with assistance to the many residents of Maui affected by the tragic fires. Our AUGUST MISSION ENVELOPES are designated to support LCMS DISASTER RESPONSE. If you wish to support our LERT teams (Lutheran Emergency Response Teams), please place your mission envelope in the offering plate by next Sunday, or donate online under “monthly mission” by August 31.
RALLY DAY PICNIC SIGN UP: There will be a congregational picnic after worship on Rally Day, September 10. Hamburgs, hotdogs, and beverages will be provided. Please sign up on the glass case if you will be joining the fun.
FLU SHOTS: Rite Aid will be at Grace on September 24 after worship to provide flu shots for those who desire one. Most insurances are accepted (be sure to bring your card).
CHURCH OFFICE will be open this week on Wednesday and Thursday from 10am – 2pm.
