It’s Time to Order Christmas Poinsettias

Posted November 1, 2021 By admin

Worship and Music will once again be accepting orders for Christ-mas Poinsettias to be placed in the church for our Christmas services in honor and/or memory of loved ones. This year the cost per poinsettia will be $10.50; checks should be made payable to St. Jacob’s Lutheran Church with Poinsettia on the memo line.
If you would like to order a poinsettia, please submit your completed order form AND payment to Marie or Robin.
The deadline for placing your order is Sunday, November 14, 2021. To guarantee delivery of the poinsettias, Worship and Music must place the order for St. Jacob’s on the deadline date. The team asks that you turn your orders in early as NO orders can be accepted after the deadline.

Thanksgiving Eve Worship

Posted November 1, 2021 By admin

It’s hard to believe but it is time once again for our Thanksgiving Eve worship service. In years past, St. Jacob’s participated in a community project to supply families with traditional Thanksgiving meals provided by The Hub. Last year in the midst of the pandemic, The Hub ceased providing such meals and so we turned our hearts to support We Care. This year, it is hoped that we will find a way to expand our ministry to those in need who are our neighbors in the surrounding community. Please keep an eye on the weekly bulletin announcements and also the mid-month Grace Notes for further details.
