UPCOMING EVENTS

And join us for the following on Sunday: 
The Hands on Mission Committee will be selling brats between services and after 2nd service. Proceeds go to support the cost of this year’s October 6th Fall Festival. Join us as you leave church for the day and take home your lunch. In addition to the brat sale, the Valders Garden Club will be having a Plant Sale.  There will be a variety of plants and items for sale to enhance your garden!  The Luther League will be having a Bake Sale to fund their trip to the National Youth Gathering in New Orleans in July.  Stop by and pick up some delicious treats!

 

During the special congregational event on April 11, members of Faith Lutheran Church were invited to share their faith story through written word or art.  The collages and pictures displayed on the walls in the inner narthex are visual depictions of these faith stories or moments of time on our faith journey. Please stop by to view and enjoy them!    

 

Spring is here and it's time to prepare for the Nine and Dine Golf Group.  Anyone interested in golfing (skill level does NOT matter) is invited to join us - beginning May 11 and meeting every Friday during the summer. You do not need to attend each week - please join us when your schedule allows. We play nine holes of golf and follow with dinner at Seven Lakes.  All ages are welcome. Join us May 11 at 5:00 on hole number 1 at Seven Lakes.  If you have any questions, please call Carolyn Hallberg (775-3942), or the church office.

Pentecost Sunday is May 27 – plan now to wear red!

 

The Board of Youth and Family Ministry invites you to A “Building Youth Ministry” visioning workshop on Saturday, June 9th. We will gather at the church for refreshments at 8:45 a.m. and the workshop will begin promptly at 9:00 a.m.  It will conclude with a small group activity over lunch from 12:30 p.m. to 1:00 p.m.  This workshop will provide an opportunity to work together to discern what God’s plan is for our youth ministry over the next five years and its role in Faith’s Vision 2016 plan.  The output of this workshop will also assist us in the call process for our new associate pastor.  Please join us for this important visioning workshop.  Junior high students through adults are invited!  Please R.S.V.P. to Becky at bscharn@tds.net or 775-9412 so we can plan for meals.  We look forward to hearing your dreams for the future!

Faith's Pantry is open the 3rd Saturday of the month from 10:00-11:00 a.m. serving people within a 10 mile radius of Valders.  If you are in need, please stop in and we can help you.
