10-16-2011 Announcements

IN OUR DAILY PRAYERS this week please keep Ardeth Baer, Marge Wollman, all who are hospitalized and all who are in cancer treatment in your prayers. We ask that you would continue to pray for our shut-in and nursing home members, our inactive members as well as at least two people in your lives who don’t know Christ.

BAZAAR – Please plan to attend our annual Bazaar on November 3rd from 10:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. We will again have a Country Store with baked goods, Stitchery/Craft Booth and the Lunch Counter. If you have any questions or are willing to work, please contact Garnet Stern, Mildred Siekmann or Sharon Pfeiffer.

EXTRA KITCHENWARE – Please check the kitchen to see if any of the containers, bowls, cake pans or pie plates are yours; we seem to have items that have been left from funerals or potlucks that need to be returned to their rightful owners. Also, please check the refrigerator and freezer as there are food items that should be taken home before the Bazaar because we will need to clean the refrigerators also. We will be setting up for the Bazaar and cleaning the kitchen on Sunday, October 30th starting at 1 p.m. We would appreciate if you would come and help us with this project. Thanks.

LUTHERANS FOR LIFE will be holding their Quarterly Meeting on Friday, October 21st at 7:00 at Redeemer Lutheran Church in Menno. For more information, please contact Barbara Salis.

DONATE YOUR OLD EYEGLASSES to those in need! Please gather all of your old eyeglasses that are taking up space in your various cabinets and drawers, and bring them to church. We will send them to Orphan Grain Train where they, in turn, will send them on to those in need at eyeglass clinics in poor countries. For one more week, look for the donation box in the Fellowship Hall. For more info please contact Pastor.

LWML FALL RALLY – This Saturday our church will host the Yankton Zone LWML Fall Rally. Details are posted on the bulletin board. All ladies (members and non-members!) are welcome and encouraged to attend.

SNOW REMOVAL BIDS – The Trustees are seeking bids for snow removal this winter. If anyone is interested in submitting a bid for removal of snow from the parking lot and/or sidewalks, please contact Scott Ruml.

NEW MEMBER RECEPTION – At 11:30 next Sunday we will have a New Member Reception and potluck. Our Evangelism Committee will host the luncheon and the Samaritan Group will be the servers. Beverages and rolls will be provided; please feel free to bring your favorite entrĂ©e, salad or dessert! Everyone is invited to stay for the luncheon and welcome our newest members!

QUARTERLY VOTERS’ MEETING NOTICE – Our Fall voters’ meeting will be held Oct. 30th at 11:00 in the Fellowship Hall.

MAIN STREET LIVING – Oct. 23, 2011 – Kid’s Crossing looks at Luke 18:16 (Jesus loves little children). The featured speaker is Rev. Kevin Vogts from Holy Cross Lutheran Church in Dakota Dunes. The sermon theme is “If It Is the Lord’s Will.” Main Street Living may be seen each Sunday morning at 10:00 on KDLT-NBC Sioux Falls.

THE LUTHERAN HOUR – Oct. 23, 2011 – Rev. Dr. Ken Klaus’ sermon theme, based on Matthew 22:37-40, will be “That’s Not Gonna Happen.” Love God. Love your neighbor. So easy to say; so impossible to do. Jesus spent His life doing what we could not. The Lutheran Hour is broadcast every Sunday morning at 8:30 on 105.9 FM (KMIT) and at 9:30 on 570 AM (WNAX).

DID YOU KNOW that The Lutheran Hour, which began in 1930, is the world's longest-running, Christian outreach radio program? It proclaims the message of Jesus Christ to more than 800,000 people each week over 1,300 radio stations across North America. It is also broadcast on the American Forces Network to reach military personnel and their families around the world.
