Friendly Reminder Have you paid for the flower chart bouquets? The flower budget is in the red. Life is busy it is easy to forget.
Coupon Books Pastor still has a few coupon books left. If you want to save at the sale, get a book from him. Five will get you ten or more. The money will still go toward Crossways training.
Crossways will be introduced soon. We will start with an introductory course, which should last a couple of months, and the materials are pretty reasonable. Later, we will have full blown Crossways. For as good as the course is, the money spent for the whole course will be some of the best money you’ll ever spend.
We celebrate... with Shawn Glasscock & Brenda Drew as they join their lives as one on Saturday afternoon.
Cause of the Month October - The ARC of Lincoln/Lancaster County

Donations for containers of honey support the ARC which raises awareness about developmental disabilities and provides services for people with developmental disabilities

Food Pantry In October, the Lincoln Lutheran Food Pantry needs macaroni & cheese dinners, canned juices, spaghetti-o’s or canned ravioli, and canned tomato products. We ask that you do NOT donate expired food—it will be discarded. THERE IS A REAL NEED FOR FOOD AND/OR CASH DONATIONS AT THIS TIME. To donate cash, place it in the collection plate clearly marked “Food Pantry”.

PLEASE REMEMBER OUR 75TH ANNIVERSARY GOAL TO FILL THE BARREL FOR THE PANTRY. LET’S SEE IF WE CAN FILL IT AGAIN BY OCTOBER 21ST.

Christ in our Home The October, November, December issues of Christ in Our Home are on the table in the Narthex.
