God's Work. Our Hands Day. - September 8th 2019
We participated in the ELCA-wide day of service called, “God’s Work. Our Hands.” On Sunday, September 8th, we gathered for worship and the meal of Holy Communion at 9:30 a.m. and then dispersed to various parts of the building or beyond to serve God and neighbor in several ways.
We helped the community with clean-up projects and assisting with yardwork.
We sorted clothes for Hunter’s Helping Hands, and organized the rooms where the clothing is stored.
We delivered Weekend Backpack Program food that has been collected to Lakeview Schools.
We brought a worship service to the residents of Fieldcrest.
All ages decorated the paper bags that will be used as “Harvest Bags” to give to farmers out in the field.
We cleaned up around our church building as well.
This year, we added component of focused conversation on the topic of service around a cup of coffee for those who didn't feel able to participate in other ways.
It was a great day, where there was something for every age and ability!
