December Meeting

Posted December 7, 2017 By admin

On November 9th, 12 Up and Going members gathered in the Fellowship Hall to enjoy the “Thanksgiving of Giving” gathering. Each member brought a covered dish for the meal. This type of meal is always a surprise as to what will be served but everything is always delicious; a perfect meal. Frances gave the devotions, program and conducted the business portion.

Each member was asked to bring 2 or more items for We Care. There was a total of 40 pounds of food delivered to We Care. They were most thankful for this contribution. It helped others have food for Thanksgiving.  Special thanks to each of you for caring and helping others.

The December Meeting will be held on Thursday, Dec 14 at 11 AM in the Fellowship Hall.

Please bring party foods for sharing and 2 or more items (in lieu of Christmas Gifts) for We Care. Our goal for We Care for December is 50 pounds.

Bob and Gloria will have devotions and program.

Thanks,

Helen

2017 Year end

We have had a busy and rewarding year and we would like to thank everyone for their support. With your help, we were able to help several families in our church and our community.

The Fall Festival was a big success and was enjoyed by the children and adults. (See pictures on the back page of this newsletter).

The Youth Group will be going Christmas Caroling on Sunday Dec. 17 at 4:00 and our ladies group has been invited to join them.

Thank you,

Phyllis,

Leader

Lutheran Women Update

Posted October 28, 2017 By admin

Thanks to all that made our Fall Festival a big success. It was well attended and enjoyed by all.

The Caroline Lutheran Women Annual Convocation was held at St. Peter’s Lutheran Church in Lexington on September 30th and was attended by Gloria Ziemer, Sandra Brown, and myself. It was very informative and we shared it with the group at our meeting in October. The CLW has decided to support a foundation call RISE (Restoring Independence Supporting Empowerment) – The Gary Sinise Foundation. It serves our nation by honoring our defenders, veterans, first responders, their families and those in need. Please take time to go to their website which is GARYSINISEFOUNDATION,ORG. Our group made a donation to this foundation.

At our last meeting, several events were planned for next year. You will be hearing more about these in January, 2018.

Our thanks to all of you for helping us make 2017 a good year. We were able to help several families with their needs. This is also our goal for 2018. It is so heart warming to know, hear, and see their gratitude for our help.

We invite all ladies in our congregation to come join us on the 3rd Sunday of each month at 4:30 PM.

We continue to collect for “We Care”. The holidays are coming up and some are not as fortunate to have a delicious Thanksgiving meal as we all do, so let’s help make this possible. We will also be helping special families.

If you would like to make a special donation such as a turkey, ham or any item that cannot be put in the We Care box, please contact me.

Thank you,
