Worship at Generations

Posted December 5, 2022 By admin

Every other Sunday, Pastor David leads worship for the residents of Generations Assisted Care of Chapin. This ministry has made a difference in the lives of many folks who are not able to attend worship at their home church. The congregation is invited and certainly encouraged to share the love of Christ Jesus in worship with our friends just down the road. Our next worship opportunity will be: Sunday, December 11 with a service of Christmas Lessons and Carols. We begin our worship at 1:00PM in the lobby. Join us as you are able and bring a smile to those whom God loves.

St. Jacob’s Men Sausage Fund Raiser

Posted December 5, 2022 By admin

On Monday, November 28th, the men of St. Jacob’s were at it again. Over a dozen of or Lutheran Men gathered in the fellowship hall to continue the tradition of making their world famous homemade pork sausage.
The men took orders for sausage at five dollars per pound to raise funds for several of their ongoing ministry projects. All in all, St. Jacob’s men produced seven-hundred-forty-six pounds of delicious sausage for the congregation and surrounding community.
Many thanks to all the men who participated in this event, and especially to Phyllis, Sandra, All, and Linda for their assistance in packaging the sausage in one pound containers.
As always, there is plenty of space for all the men of St. Jacob’s to become active in participating in our Lutheran Men’s ministry. The men of St. Jacob’s meet at 6PM on the third Sunday of each month.

NALC Disaster Response Event

Posted December 5, 2022 By admin

What a great time we had during our NALC Disaster Response project in November! So many of our church family members helped us collect items to assemble health and hygiene kits for the Disaster Response warehouse. Our Goal was to collect enough materials to assemble fifty kits. That goal was certainly met. Along with health kits, St. Jacob’s collected about forty-five blankets, and several packages of adult disposable undergarments. Pastor David also furnished a case of Bibles to be donated to the warehouse.

At the completion of our project, one question remained. Who is the champion chili chef at St. Jacob’s? That question was answered as June went home with the honors (and the Chili Champion apron and trophy). Thank you to all who supplied chili with all the fixings. Thank you also to everyone who made a donation of time and talent in collecting and assembling the health kits for the NALC Disaster Response Warehouse. All in all, it was a fun night of mission and fellowship. Well done St. Jacob’s!
