Church Secretary — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 15:29:24 +0000

Saturday, September 11th at 9 a.m. (or when you get there!) Lutheran Island Camp be putting on the steel roof on the Fergus Falls Circuit adopted Retreat House at Lutheran Island Camp. Is there anyone from your congregation who can help out? There are about 4 people, so far, coming from Moorhead. We have another project to do which is to hang a number of pictures and wall hangings which have been donated for the retreat house, so some of us can do that. There are a couple of other projects lined up for us to do as well according to the man or woman power that is available. Also we are still in need of about $600. To purchase the roofing materials, we have $1810 at the present time. Please feel free to pass this on to others whom you think may be able to help THANKS!!!

Thrivent Choice Dollars to Allocate

Church Secretary — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 13:59:22 +0000

Thrivent members should have recently received a letter stating—if they are eligible—how much they are eligible to designate and 3 easy steps to do it. You can visit Thrivent.com/choicedollars or call 1-800-847-4836 and say, “Thrivent Choice”. (This is not asking you to give a monetary gift. These are not “matching “ funds. This is simply you directing Thrivent to give money to a place that you choose.) Thrivent is no longer giving supplemental funds for any fundraisers, except when the recipient is a person/family (not our church or school), for medical needs or disaster assistance. These are big changes. This is your only chance to designate our church or school to receive any money from Thrivent for 2010. There are, of course, other Lutheran organizations to choose from, including Lutheran Island Camp. Your deadline to get this done is March 31, 2011, but the sooner you choose, the sooner our church, school, or other Lutheran organization will benefit. Please call or go on-line as soon as possible to help distribute these funds. Lutheran organizations are counting on you! Any questions, see Shari Sorkness, your Thrivent Congregational Advocate.
