LOVE OFFERING At the Easter Breakfast the LWML will not be asking for a free will offering, but we will be taking up a love offering which will go to Redeemer Lutheran Church, Kansas City. Rev. Brad Zerkel, a past member of Good Shepherd, is their Pastor. The church was heavily damaged by a fire several months ago.
EASTER LILIES If you would like to purchase one or more lilies to help adorn our sanctuary on Easter, please use the sign up sheet in the narthex. The cost is $8.00 each. Please pay Diana E.
BOOK SALE Martin Luther School in Joplin is having a book sale on Thursday, March 21, from 5:00–8:00 pm. All proceeds go for a school trip. You may also donate books to the cause. A collection box is located in the Narthex. Contact Rhonda Nicholas for more information.
RECYCLE YOUR BULLETIN Under the round table in the narthex we have provided a container that you can put your used bulletin in for recycling. Thank you.
ASSISTIVE LISTENING If you are having a hard time hearing the service, assistive listening devices are available from the ushers. They work like a transistor radio and you can control the volume.
FLOWER CHART There are lots of empty dates on the calendar. If you would like to place flowers at the altar for a special occasion or in memory of someone, please sign the flower chart hanging on the wall next to the water fountain in the hallway. Simply write your name, phone number, and occasion with the pen provided.
BLOOD PRESSURE CHECKS are available in the nurse’s office after each service. You will be given a small form that can be carried in your wallet which will include medical information and a log of your blood pressure readings.
PRAYER BEARS are in the sanctuary pews and available to be signed out (notebook in narthex) and given to anyone that needs God’s love, comfort, and peace. We have had reports and words of thanks from folks being blessed by this outreach ministry.
