Weekly Letter From Our Pastor
Sunday Church: The Quilt Project
A month later there's still buzz in the area about, "The Quilt Project." The seed was planted late last summer: What if every family attending the December Ruby's Pantry was given the gift of a beautiful hand-made quilt? After many phone calls, trips, texts, emails, and prayers, the dream became reality. Last month over 200 quilts - all donated by Wisconsin quilters - were given as gifts to our guests. Moving through this project we learned much about God and about ourselves. This Sunday we will be reflecting on how the Spirit transformed us in the midst of this task, quilt by quilt, person by person. Our preaching theme: "The Quilt Project."
Living for Jesus!
-Ned

Last week's snowfall dumped several inches of demanding work for the residents of this part of the Upper Midwest. A big shout out to several of our ministry partners:
Cole Larson, Duane Benoy and Mark Lieberherr for clearning the sidewalks and parking lot. Thank you!

JAM (Jesus And Me)
Winter/Spring schedules are busy and we are lacking a few teachers for JAM. For the time being, the K-1 class and the 2-4 class will not meet on the last Sunday of each month. Please keep your children with you during church, do not send them to the younger class as it will be full. The 3 year old-4K class will have class every week. See the Facebook JAM page for a more detailed schedule. If anyone has the desire to volunteer to teach, let Christine Ebner know.
This Sunday:
Little Jammers (3year olds-4K) - Mrs. Schmidt
Middle Jammers (K-1) - Mrs. Harder
Big Jammers (2-4) - NO CLASS (Stay with families during church)
