Yesterday was Yvonne Griesse’s last Sunday School with us, for a while, anyway. We finished talking about Martin Luther’s world-changing ministry, and especially how God perfectly timed the invention of the printing press to spread His Truth everywhere. 🖨️Sunday School meets after worship.
It’s the giving season! Instead of making our special offerings at only one or two services at the end of the year, we’re declaring that now through Sunday, January 4 is Faith’s “giving season.” Write “Special Offerings” on your check memo and generously support the Rescue Mission, Life Choices, Alatheia Riding Center and Brave Warriors locally; and Lutherans in Africa and Danelle Putnam Schumann internationally. – Stewardship
The Christmas Congregational meal this year will be a Christmas Brunch on Sunday, December 14, following the worship service. 🎄🎁✨ Women’s Circle, with Thrivent Action Dollars, will purchase all ready-to-serve foods. No cooking! No cost! No late hours clean-up! Sign up by December 7 to determine the correct food purchases. Following the brunch, we will enjoy a carol sing and a white elephant gift exchange. All gifts should be family-friendly. Fun and fellowship! Plan to attend!
The Altar Guild has ended the current flower program for worship floral arrangements effective 1/1/26. If a congregational member would like to provide flowers for Sunday worship services, the member can:
💐 provide the flowers from a florist of your choice
💐 provide your own flowers
💐order from the current floral provider, Liane Hickman at 509 885-8118
Members need to work directly with their selected florist. If Liane is selected, she will handle ordering, delivery of the flowers to the church and collect payments from members. If a member chooses to provide flowers from a different source, the arrangement must be at the church no later than 9am on Sunday. Members need to get any dedication information for the bulletin to Hollie in the office by noon on the Wednesday before. If you have any questions about this new policy, please contact Cindy Leichner, Anna Ericksen or Jane Watson.
The church will be closed this week for Thanksgiving and the day after. 🦃🥧☕ Have a blessed Thanksgiving! 🙏🙌
Happy Birthdays 🎂 this week to Jerry Tangren and Kathleen Ebanez!
The lessons for this Sunday, November 30, The First Sunday in Advent 🕯️ , will be from Isaiah 2:1-5; Romans 13:8-14; and Matthew 24:36-44. The lessons link to BibleGateway.com.
Have a great Thanksgiving week! 🌞🌾🍁🍂🍃🦃🥧☕ God is good, All the time; All the time, God is gooooood! 🙏🙌
