Got
Freshmen? We'll Send Care Packages!
If you know a college freshman who would enjoy a fun
care package, please give us their name and mailing address. If your freshman
attends school locally, they need a care package too! Everyone can help.
Look for our collection area in the undercroft this Sunday; we'll collect items
until Wednesday, Oct 24. Keep it simple and inexpensive. Appreciated
items are gum, pencils, ChapStick, individual packs of Kleenex, lotion,
etc. So far, we have seven young women and five young men on our list.
Questions? Contact Dee McManamy, Margi Strombeck, or Mike Madden.
Fleece
Blanket Donations
The Will County Children’s Advocacy Center provides
fleece blankets to all children with whom they conduct sensitive
interviews. At this time they are running out of blankets. We will
be putting together blankets on Sunday 11-11-2018 after the 10:00am service and
Tuesday 11-13-2018 at 6:30pm. If you are planning to help assemble
the blankets please bring sharp scissors, ruler and a marker. If you
would like to donate towards supplies, please contact Shirley Reilly. Thank you!
2018-2019
Directory
A new edition of the directory is underway, and a
draft has been placed in the back of the church. Over the next two weeks, please
look at the information we have listed for you (the entry under your name as
well as birthdays/anniversaries, and if you are listed as a contact for a
group) and verify that everything is correct. If you need to update anything,
take a pen and correct it right in the directory. Any written changes noted
will be changed in the master copy of the directory before copies are made.
Who
Has Church Keys?
Also located in the back of the church will be a
sort of sign-up sheet for anyone who has been given a church key. If you currently
have a key, please write your name down (first and last name). We’ve never kept
a record of how many people have keys, and it is good practice that we start
doing so for insurance purposes. Thank you in advance for helping us out with
that.
