ATTENTION THRIVENT MEMBERS: The Board of Directors has voted to allow the designation of Thrivent Choice Dollars by individual members of St. Paul to specific areas or causes that they want to support. The process will take two steps. First, you will need to direct your Choice Dollars to St. Paul Lutheran Church by calling Thrivent at 1-800-847-4836, follow the prompts for Choice Dollars, using your birthday or Thrivent number for verification. Secondly, you will need to contact Jerry Schradle with the amount and the specific cause that you want your Choice Dollars to be designated for at St. Paul. Choice Dollars received by St. Paul not designated go into the Fund Item administered by the BOD. Any questions may be directed to Thrivent Advocates Bob Folkmann, Dennis Griffin, or Tom Peter.

November 8th, Conversational Dinners-our theme for the month is “Praise and Patriotism” a fitting theme for this time of year. Our season continues…but first, a huge thank you to Dennis and Shirley Tice, David and Judy Charlson, and Joyce and Dennis Dobberke for hosting our October dinner and to everyone who participated In our 2nd Annual Pumpkin Carving/Decorating Contest. Once again we had some great pumpkins to vote for. Conversational Dinners are for any adult attending St. Paul, so come and join us for an evening of great food, and interesting conversations, a great chance to get to know people of St. Paul in a social setting. If you would like to host on November 8th, please contact Drue and Ellen Sander at druellen@hotmail.com or 292-3574.
