† SUNDAY SCHOOL OFFERING Starting in September and going through the end of the year, Sunday School offerings, both the adult and the children’s, are being designated to Immanuel Lutheran’s Comfort Dog Team’s fund for medical expenses. Our previous goal for Children’s Haven was $1,000 and we achieved that goal. Lets see if we can exceed that amount this time! Thanks so much for your support of this project.

† Jr. Confirmation instruction will start today at 1:15 pm in the Conference Room. Luther’s Small Catechism with Explanation will be provided to each new Confirmand, but each student will need to bring their own Bible to class.

† SHEPHERD’S OWN After a brief summer hiatus, The Shepherd’s Own resumed weekly rehearsals last week. Rehearsals are held 6:30-7:30 pm on Wednesdays. If you enjoy singing praises to the Lord in four-part harmony, and fellowship with a fun group of sinner-saints, now would be a good time to join the group – no audition required!

† LWML QUARTERLIES The new fall quarterlies are on the table by the nursery in the narthex.
