LENTEN SERVICE PROJECT
Once again we will be asking everyone to take a coin box on the table in the narthex that shaped like a barn and fill it with coins during the 40 days of Lent. We will collect the boxes on Easter Sunday. The money will go towards the ELCA good gifts......specifically to buy baby chicks to donate to families who live in desperate situations all over the world. |
MISSION OF THE MONTH
For the month of April, we will donate to the Church Response Food Pantry. Please bring the following items to church by Sunday, April 26th.

OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD
A big thank you to everyone that participated in Operation Christmas Child. We had a total of 22 boxes that were returned filled with gifts for children living in desperate situations. These boxes will be sent to many places around the world including the United States. |
PERSONAL CARE KITS MINISTRY
Donate the following items for this ministry sponsored by Lutheran World Relief: Lightweight, dark-colored bath towel, 2 bars of soap (3.5 to 4 ounce bar), Toothbrush (in original packaging), A sturdy comb (flimsy ones can't be used). These items are rolled up in the towel and sent to a Lutheran World Relief warehouse to be delivered to people who are survivors of disasters all over the world. |
PRAYER CHAIN
The Evangelism & Social Ministry Committee keeps people and families in need of our prayers by putting them on the prayer chain and listing them in the bulletin. As you have prayer concerns, forward any names you would like put on the prayer chain and in the bulletin by calling the church office at 605-393-0700. |
PRAYER SHAWL MINISTRY
A prayer shawl is a simple shawl created with love and prayer to be given to someone in need. Our hope is anyone who is in need of prayer, hope and comfort may have a shawl and will know that people of Lord of Life Lutheran Church are praying for them. When a shawl has been finished it will be brought to the Church, taken to the altar and blessed. When a shawl is given out it will have a brief prayer attached to it. YOU CAN BE A PART OF THIS MINISTRY! Donations of yarn can be made, it takes 3 skeins of yarn to make one shawl. You can use your talent at crocheting or knitting - simple patterns are available at the church. We have volunteers who are willing to share their talents if you want to learn to crochet or knit, call 605-393-0700 for more information. |
