Toys Needed for Nursery
Our nursery is in need of gently used toys! Would you consider donating “gently-used” toys your children no longer use? Examples of items needed include:
- dolls of all sizes and ethnicities
- trucks and cars
- Bible story books
- wooden puzzles, especially things found in creation (animals, trees, people, etc.)
- “Fisher-Price” Little People: Noah’s Ark, Zoo and Nativity
- board games
- Home Living toys
Please, we do not need any stuffed animals or toys that are “character-related”, such as Mickey Mouse, Dora the Explorer, etc.
Drop off items in the marked box in the nursery or at the church office during regular business hours. Contact the Family and Youth Team with questions. Thank you!

Church Council Looking For Key Leadership in 2010
January 15, 2010
Filed under Get Involved, Worship
As OSLC approaches its annual meeting on January 31st, three positions need the right persons to fill them: congregational treasurer, stewardship committee chair, and Christian education chairperson.
- Congregational Treasurer: Our hired bookkeeper does check writing and reconciliations, so the treasurer signs checks and stays on top of our financial reports and transactions.
- Stewardship Committee Chairperson: This position is backed by a multiple of stewardship materials available for monthly usage from our ELCA, so we are looking forward to having someone able to access this material on line, and lead our public discussions throughout the year on how we use God’s gifts among us.
- Christian Education Chairperson: This position not only involves Sunday School, but youth and adult life-long learning.
Anyone interested, please contact Becky Grapes or Rod Tisthammer. Thank you!
