Souper Bowl Players Needed for the Souper Bowl of Caring

Join our Souper Bowl Team!

This winter our Youth will be presenting the congregation with the opportunity to join in the fight against hunger in our community and our world. We are looking for ‘players’ from the congregation to help the youth fill large soup buckets in the narthex of the church with cans of soup and/or dollar bills during Super Bowl Weekend, February 7th, 2010.

Soup suggestions include: cream of chicken, cream of mushroom, chicken noodIe, chicken with rice, beef noodle, vegetable beef, packets of ramen noodles and any of the” chunky” style soups. The winners of the Souper Bowl are the many families served by WAFER and each of you who follow the teaching of Jesus to help feed those who are hungry. Thank you!

Help Send Our Youth to New Orleans

Help send our Youth to New Orleans in two special ways!

In Jackson Square, the crossroads of New Orleans’ French Quarter, there will be a big kettle to fill with quarters. Our goal as an ELCA Youth Gathering is a ONE MILLION DOLLAR offering to combat hunger. That equals $30 per youth attendee. Thank you for your gifts this Sunday!

Could you be a prayer partner for one of our youth (Nylan Hynek, Tom Dereszynski, Ariel Watson, Brittney Dolan, Elise Hynek, and Brittany Taylor)? We ask for members to send the group, along with adult leaders Jessica Zinniel and Pastor Jolivette, with daily prayers. Put your name and prayer partner on a pew card on Sunday, and remember to read our blog, which will be updated daily on our website. Thank you!

Gospel According to The Chronicles of Narnia in July

Sundays in July after worship in the Gathering Room.
