DONATE YOUR TIME AND TALENT TO GRACE. We’ve begun collecting the 2023-2024 Time & Talent forms regarding opportunities to serve at Grace. Please thoughtfully consider how you may be able to help. Forms are available in the lobby. Once completed, please place in the offering basket or mail to the church office. Thank you for donating your time & talent toward serving in the mission of Grace Lutheran Church.

 

SPECIAL REQUEST. We have a different kind of request for assistance from the church office. Crystal Westmeyer, whose Memorial Service Pastor Jenn conducted recently, had a lovely cat named Callie, whom she had adopted from Sara Straub. Callie began living with Crystal's sister, Jean Jacobs, when Crystal went into the hospital. Now, Jean and her family are hoping to find a loving, permanent home for Callie. She is a loving and affectionate cat, who likes human attention. She has been around other animals, but also seems to do well on her own. If you, or someone you know, is interested in providing a stable, loving home for Callie, please contact the church office, or Jean directly, for more information. 

 

ANNOUNCEMENTS are due by 9:00 a.m. Tuesday. Send to graceluthch@earthlink.net.

 

WEDNESDAY TEXTALK will be taking a break for the summer. See you again in the fall!

 

QUILTERS MEET on third Thursday each month from 1:00 to 3:30 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall. If questions contact Judy Blancett.

 

WE ARE STILL ACCEPTING DONATIONS for our beautiful tech desk in the sanctuary. If you would like to make a donation, it is welcome! Please indicate "tech desk" on the memo line of your check and offering envelope. So far, we’ve received a little over $8,000 to offset the $11,800 expense. Thank you!

 

HAVE YOU NOTICED anything that needs to be replaced or fixed? Please let our Property Committee know! Reach out to Elisa Casey, Daryl Barowicz or Peggy Stevens.

 

MANNA ON MERIDIAN. Distribution Day is the 3rd Saturday of each month (next on June 17 and Grace will be the lead church for June). For info or to volunteer, contact Penny Rusinko or Burt Von Hoff. Year-round, we collect canned tuna. Please place tuna donations in the “tuna bucket” in the Fellowship Hall. If after hours, you may place in the 'deliveries' bin outside the office doors. Manna can also be supported through your prayers and through monetary donations. Make checks payable to Grace Lutheran Church and place “Manna” on the memo line.  

 

T-SHIRTS FOR MANNA. Approximately 250 men’s size large or larger gently used t-shirts are needed every month to convert into reusable bags to use on Distribution Day. Please place t-shirts in the Manna basket in the Fellowship Hall.
