Meeting International Needs with Warm Quilts

This group of quilters meet in the Fellowship Hall on Thursday mornings, September through May, to cut and assemble quilts from donated and purchased fabrics, which are sent twice a year to Lutheran World Relief for distribution. The group includes some who work at home to assemble tops or cut squares. Contact:Ken Ruud

A  Shared Mission Project Every Year

Each year, the Sunday School classes dedicate the weekly offerings to a special project to support our brothers and sisters outside our local area.  We have purchased bicycles for pastors in Africa, cows and chickens to help support needy families, helped build homes for mothers and kids in poor communities and improve water systems.  This year we are partnering with World Vision to provide families with chickens for nutritional and income producing opportunities.

Sharing the Good News with Friends and Neighbors

Summer VBS week is a blessing for many kids and families.  2016 VBS was held July 5-8. The theme was Ocean Commotion, "Diving into Noah's Flood". Check back here next spring for the date and plan to come for fun and learning about Jesus, and bring your friends, too!  All ;children are welcomed, encouraged and celebrated as individuals and part of God's family. See a few photos from this summer's VBS below.

Support and Prayers for Those in the Mission Field

Our church family supports missionaries, church workers and seminary students with designated gifts and prayers. Our list currently includes a family in Hong Kong, two seminary students, several South Sudanese church worker students, a pastor in Kenya,  and three missionary couples.  One of these couples is the daughter and son-in-law of members of our congregation.
