IN
YOUR DAILY PRAYERS
this week please remember the family of Delphine Laber who stepped into eternal
Glory last Sunday as well as our hospitalized members, those recovering at
home, those in cancer treatment programs, our shut-in and inactive members, and
at least 2 family members or friends in your life who do not yet know Christ.
DELPHINE LABER’S ENTRANCE INTO GLORY – We pray for peace and comfort for the family of Delphine Laber whom
God called home last Sunday, Feb. 24th. We pray that God would comfort all who mourn
with the hope of the glorious resurrection of the body and a happy reunion in
heaven, and that He would sustain the family with the knowledge that all who
remain faithful will be given the crown of eternal life and will be in our
Lord’s presence forevermore. Delphine’s
funeral was held last Friday, March 1st.
NEW MEMBER WELCOME – During our worship service today we will receive Chris and Jenny
Peters and their children (Luke and Rylee) as new members. They live here in Freeman and have been attending
our church. Chris works for Golden West
and Jenny is a radiologist for the hospital in Tripp. We ask that everyone please give them a warm
welcome in joining our church family!

THE DATE – On

Falls. They suggest we have 40+ people
there to help serve, along with a small group that goes early to help prepare
the supper meal. Please consider being a
part of this worthwhile event. More
details will come later and a sign-up sheet will be posted on the bulletin
board.
GAMES AND PUZZLES – We will also be doing a game/puzzle
drive for The Banquet throughout March.
We are asking for new or slightly used board games, puzzles and
color/activity books. We ask if the
games or puzzles have been used that you please check to see that no pieces are
missing. The Banquet will distribute
these items at a later date but we will have someone transport them that
evening to Sioux Falls. There is a large
plastic tub in the Fellowship Hall for collecting these items.

receiving Attendance Awards:
Pre-K and K à Alaric Knittel
