Sunday, November 15th, Bulletin News & Notes
SUNDAY SCHOOL (9:30-10:15 am). The adult class is continuing a look at the book of Revelation. The children and youth classes (Pre-K through high school) also meet each Sunday morning.Ā
MISSIONARY PARTNERSHIP. If youād like to give in support of our Together-In-Mission partners, Rev. Michael and Shanna Hageman, and the Lordās mission to Tanzania, āTogether-In-Missionā offering envelopes can be found on the shelf in the narthex for giving your support through the Sunday morning offering. Make checks payable to āImmanuel Lutheran Churchā and the church will then forward these offerings each quarter.Ā
BOARD of MISSIONS COLLECTION. For November we are collecting childrenās mittens, gloves, scarves and winter hats for the Wichita Childrenās Home. A Christmas tree will be set up around which you can place your donation. The Board of Missions will be delivering these items around the first of December so that they children/youth will have them during the winter months. Thanks for any help you are able to give toward this offering!Ā
THANKSGIVING FOOD VOUCHERS. The Canton-Galva Ministerial Alliance is giving $100 food vouchers to those needing some extra help this month in buying groceries. The vouchers can be used at Canton Lockers, Tin Roof Pantry (Galva), and Dales Supermarket (Hillsboro). If you or someone you know would benefit from this extra help, please see Pastor for a voucher.Ā
CHILDRENāS CHRISTMAS PROGRAM practices begin today during Sunday School at 9:30 am and continue every Sunday through December 20th. The program will then be held on Sunday, December 20th at 6:00 pm. Refreshments will follow.Ā
THANKSGIVING SERVICE. We will meet on Wednesday evening, November 25th at 7:00 pm for a Service of Thanksgiving (w/Holy Communion).Ā Ā
DECORATING for the Advent and Christmas season will take place AFTER the morning Service on Sunday, November 29th. All who are able to stay and help are encouraged to do so. Thanks!Ā
95th BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION! Join LaVera Vogts and her family this coming Saturday, November 21st for a āCome & Go Card Showerā! The celebration is at the church from 1:00-3:00 pm. Refreshments will be served.Ā
STEWARDSHIP THOUGHT. āAnd cast the worthless servant into the outer darknessā (Matthew 25:30). Why did the worthless servant act the way he did? Because of what he believed about the Master. He didnāt trust or love the Master; so, his actions did not demonstrate love and trust, but rather hate and mistrust. Itās the same with us, but in reverse: since we know our Lord God to be faithful and kind, we desire to serve Him and render faithful service with what He has given us.Ā
LIFE QUOTE. āTragedies are a reminder that we do live in a fallen world, and we all need to repent. We thank God for the time He has given us in this life to repent. We recognize our sin. We confess our sin. We trust that Jesus did everything for our forgiveness. Out of thanks for Godās gift of forgiveness, letās be living fig trees. Each day letās bear good fruit, showing our faith, and giving glory to God in everything we do.ā Rev. Darren Green, St. John Evangelical Lutheran Church, Redwood Falls, Minnesota.āÆA Life Quote from Lutherans For Life, lutheransforlife.org.Ā

LIVESTREAM HELP - We are needing to train a third person on live streaming for Sunday Adult Bible Study and Worship service time. Please contact Brent for details. This would involveĀ setting up the iPad, logging onto Facebook and our church website, copying and pasting some links, maybe adjusting some volumes during the worship serviceĀ periodically. We would also show you how to setĀ up the video camera and amplifier for use with the Fellowship Hall TV / Sound System.
PRIVATE CONFESSION & ABSOLUTION - Pastor Slater will be available in his office, for any individuals who would like to have private Confession and Absolution in preparation for receiving Holy Communion, from 9:00am to Noon, each Saturday prior to the Sundays in which the Lordās Supper will be celebrated. This is of course voluntary and not required for receiving Communion. Just an opportunity to further prepare your heart and mind for anyone who might so desire. Any questions, please let Pastor know.
