IN OUR DAILY PRAYERS this week please remember Doris Albrecht who has been readmitted to Sanborn and all others who are sick or have other medical problems, our shut-in and inactive members, and at least two people in your life who do not yet know Christ.

WE ARE LOOKING for SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS.  Please let Amber, Cheri or Kari know if you are interested.  Please prayerfully consider volunteering for these important positions!

MAIN STREET LIVING – August 19 – Kid’s Crossing looks at standing firm in the faith as Danny learns about Jesus from his Grandmother.  The speaker will be Rev. Michael Bagnall from Zion Lutheran Church in Wessington Springs, Mt. Olive Lutheran Church in Woonsocket and Concordia Lutheran Church in Wessington.  His sermon theme will be “The Humility of Faith.”  The Main Street Living Choir will provide the hymns.

THE LUTHERAN HOUR – August 19 – “Hard to Believe But True!” will be the theme for Rev. Gregory Seltz’ sermon.  The Lutheran Hour is broadcast on Sunday mornings at 8:30 on 105.9 FM and at 9:30 on 570 AM.
SAMARITANS PURSE “Shoe Box program” – For those who noticed the gray tub in the Fellowship Hall and are curious about its purpose, the following will shed some light on the subject.  The Board of Ed is very proud of the response we received from the local children to help provide items for underprivileged children around the world.  Samaritans Purse is a Christian organization that helps people in need.  They are helping dig wells and provide mosquito nets in Africa, helping Veterans injured while protecting our country as well as delivering packages to children who are in need.  The Board of Ed thought the children would like to be involved by providing items for needy children, such as hygiene items, school supplies, personal items (such as socks, t-shirts and underwear) or even toys and hard candy.  These are things that some children are rarely able to enjoy … essentially anything that will fit in a shoe box.  If any of the congregation would also enjoy donating, there is additional information on the bulletin board.  We plan on collecting items through August.  Thank you for your generosity.  (s) The Board of Ed
