OUR SUMMER WORSHIP SCHEDULE continues through August 23. We offer one combined service that starts at 10:00 a.m., with fellowship hour immediately afterwards. We will return to having two services on August 30.

PLEASE BE SURE TO SIGN IN ON THE ATTENDANCE SHEET in the narthex each Sunday morning, so we know that you have joined us for worship.

If you would like to host a Sunday fellowship hour, the signup sheet is located in the Fellowship Hall on the wall next to the coffee maker. You can choose to fully host or to only bring the refreshments. If questions, contact Mary Grant at 609 602-0155.

PHOTOS FOR WEBSITE. Our church website is in the process of being updated. We are asking for church members to forward any personal digital photos that were taken during church events, activities or organized outings, for inclusion on the site.

CHRIST IN OUR HOME devotionals for July-September have arrived. Copies are available on the table in the narthex. If you would like to have a large-print copy, see Don Blancett.

FEED OUR NEIGHBORS. Grace Mission Episcopal Church downtown provides a daily meal to their immediate neighbors year-round. Two weeks out of the year, their staff takes a well-earned break, and local faith communities fill in. Grace Lutheran will partner with other believers to provide a late-morning meal on Friday, July 10. There are opportunities to provide cooked foods as well as packaged snacks and drinks. To volunteer, contact Frank Pate at franksta70@comcast.net or (850) 728-4426 AND sign up for meal assembly and contributions on the poster in the fellowship hall.

MANNA ON MERIDIAN DISTRIBUTION DAY is Saturday, July 18. Volunteers are welcome! If questions, contact Penny Rusinko, 507-213-7246 or gprusinko@gmail.com. Thank you for your generous donations of tuna. Manna also currently needs canned corn, green beans and black beans; 11oz – 15oz boxes of cereal; and new or used brown paper grocery bags. Place these in the bin next to the tuna bucket in the Fellowship Hall.

THE MEN’S GROUP MEETS every third Monday from 11:45 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall. Upcoming meeting date is July 20.

WE APPRECIATE YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT of Grace Lutheran Church and your giving of your time and talents. Donations can be made in person on Sunday mornings in the basket near the entrance to the sanctuary, or on our website at www.gracelutheran.faith.
