SHOES FOR AFRICA MISSION PROJECT<\/strong>\u00a0 There are thousands of men, women and children in Africa that don\u2019t own even one pair of shoes.\u00a0 The Lutheran Women\u2019s Missionary League is collecting used shoes through the month of August that will be sent to Africa.\u00a0 Help by bringing shoes you no longer wear or want and place them in the\u00a0 \u201cbig shoe box\u201d in the narthex.\u00a0 All sizes and styles are needed.\u00a0 Tying shoe strings together, or putting a rubber band around individual pairs, would be a big help.\u00a0 Thanks!\u00a0 Please have shoes here by next Sunday, Aug. 26.<\/p>\n

A REMINDER<\/strong>\u00a0 The fellowship we enjoy through visiting before our worship service begins is certainly very important and welcomed.\u00a0 Please remember when the organist begins playing and the candles are lit, our service has actually begun and you are encouraged to begin to quiet.\u00a0 This quiet time is a wonderful opportunity for personal prayer and to prepare yourself for worship.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

CD\u2019S AND TAPES OF THE SERVICE<\/strong>\u00a0 Audio tapes and CD\u2019s of the service are available after the service each Sunday.\u00a0 They are located in the glassed-door cabinet in the narthex.<\/p>\n

ASSISTIVE LISTENING<\/strong>\u00a0 If you are having a hard time hearing the service, assistive listening devices are available from the ushers.\u00a0 They work like a transistor radio and you can control the volume.<\/p>\n

BLOOD PRESSURE CHECKS<\/strong> are available in the narthex after the service.\u00a0 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.<\/p>\n

PRAYER BEARS<\/strong> are in the sanctuary pews and available to be signed out (notebook in narthex) and given to anyone that needs God\u2019s love, comfort, and peace.\u00a0 We have had reports and words of thanks from folks being blessed by this outreach ministry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
