ALTAR FLOWERS are given to the glory of God by Brian and Debbie Hooper in loving memory of their daughter, Jenny and in thanksgiving for their whole family.
NEXT SUNDAY! Our Bishop, The Reverend Dr. Larry Stoterau, makes his annual preaching visit to Historic First Lutheran. Please plan to attend and invite family and friends!
ATTENTION ALL RETURNING AND NEWLY ELECTED BOARD MEMBERS! Please remember that installation of officers will take place during worship next Sunday and that our first meeting of the new Board of Directors will follow the service. Brunch will be provided during the meeting.
THANK YOU! To all who gifted Pastor Schaar at Christmas time with additional gifts to the general fund of Historic First Lutheran to help reduce our deficit, THANK YOU! More than $3,800.00 was received in honor of Pastor Schaar and his ministry here!
PORTALS OF PRAYERS The January – March 2009 issue of “Portals of Prayers” are available from the Information Rack in the Narthex. Regular print and large print versions are available.
A NEW ERA This is the first Sunday bulletin printed with our new Risograph ink printer. You might remember that our old printing machine gave up the ghost before Christmas at 12 years of age, having printed more that 2.1 million copies. Our new machine is expected to provide us the same level and longevity of service.
JANUARY NEWSLETTER DELAYED Due to the arrival of our new printing machine this past week, the January newsletter will not be mailed until this Wednesday. Most of you should have it by week’s end! Thanks for your understanding!
USHERS TAKE NOTE Next week’s service will involve Usher Team #7 – Kevin Baumgartner, Daniel Hendry, Steven Hendry and James Price.
