SAVE YOUR COINS – The Terrific Tuesday Kids are partnering with the Outreach Committee to support the Hayward Community Food Shelf. They will take a “noisy can offering” at their Christmas Pageant on December 15 during the 9:30 worship. Let’s start saving our coins and contribute to this important outreach! Thank you
We’re preparing for Operation Christmas 2024. Check out our information page to find out more and begin your own preparation. There will be many opportunities to participate including: buying children’s gifts (starts December 2), donate for food purchases, make cookies for those who are in care centers (bring to church December 14-15) and volunteer to help with preparing food baskets and family gifts. We’ll start with volunteer sign-up sheets towards the end of November.
More Choir Members wanted! All parts welcome. If you can carry a tune you’re qualified. All parts welcome. The choir rehearses Wednesday at 6 pm and sings for two Sunday services and one Saturday service per month. Please contact Patty at 715-634-0379 for more details.
Have you made any end of life plans? Does your family know your wishes, where your remains will be placed? One decision you can make is to purchase a niche in the First Lutheran Memorial Garden. Take some time and talk with the Columbarium Memorial Garden Team. Currently Memorial Garden Wall Plagues are $400. On January 1st the cost will be $450. Buy a plague in memory of Family, Pastor, Friend. Plagues are cast twice a year- spring and early fall. Go to our web page for more information: https://flchaywardwi.org/columbarium/
Volunteer Coordinator(s) Help Wanted For 2025. We understand the whole year is overwhelming — but what about 1 month? Would you be willing to find volunteers for 1 month of the year? The sign-up sheets will still be there for those who sign up – you will just fill in the blanks. The new directory is the perfect resource. Please get in touch with Pastor Joel if you’re willing to help. We can do this!
