Announcements:
Conversational Dinners… We will be “teaming up” once again for our 2nd Annual Pumpkin Carving/Decorating Contest to be held on October 11th. We will need several host couples, we will provide the pumpkins, you all need to provide the decorating/carving magic. Pumpkins will be judged by the congregation on October 18th. Please let us know if you will or will not be attending the October event. With so many attending our September “game”, let’s keep the “ball rolling” and make it a “bowl worthy season”!!!! Please RSVP to Drue and Ellen Sander at druellen@hotmail.com or call 292-3574.
The LWML Mite collection will be on the 4th Sunday beginning in September. We will leave the Mite box out on the 1st Sunday also until everyone has adjusted to this change.
Scandinavian Coffee Bake Sale– at Bethesda Lutheran Church on Friday, Oct. 9th from 9 am to 1:30 pm. See flyer on bulletin board.
We are in need of a treasurer for our preschool. We ask that you pray about serving the Lord in this way. Questions can be directed to Lori Jenks or Kent Ziebell.
The youth looking forward to attend the 2016 National Youth Gathering in New Orleans are less then a year away from this wonderful adventure and faith growing experience. We are busy working hard to finalize the fundraising for this event. On Sunday, September 13th the youth will be here to sell their plane tickets! Ok, not their REAL tickets, but this fundraiser you are able to Buy a Mile for $5, yes, for $5 you can pay for a mile of travel for this wonderful group. We will be kicking this fundraiser off on September 13th and it will last until we have the funds collected to pay our fare! In Christ Alone! If you have questions you may speak with any parent of youth attending or contact Thomas or Lisa Wilson.
Any youth interested in either of the Iowa District gatherings this fall need to contact Carla Murphy at 451-2800 for forms and information. Due date is September 20 for the October event.
The Sunday School Mission this fall will go to support the Lutheran Heritage Foundation’s PEOPLE NEEDING GOD – sharing the Gospel with the kids of Papua New Guinea. They have translated a Bible Studies book as well as the Catechism for children of PNG. For $5 a book can be shared with a child of PNG. We have targeted a goal of $575 enough to match our roster of 115 kids from 3 years – 12th grade! We will collect offerings through the end of the year.
