Beginning Sunday, August 15th during Sunday School and the 10am Worship, a supervised nursery will be available for children up to age 5. The Nursery Room is located on the left past the Welcome Center counter. Thank you to Cassandrah Woyak for volunteering to be our nursery supervisor.
The Emmanuel Council has voted to re-activate the Narthex renovation plan as the Campus Renovation Task Force, chaired by KC Farrell. We will keep everyone informed as we move ahead.
Now that Sunday School and youth activities are starting back up we'd like to ask for members to help us replace some equipment for activities in the Youth Room. We are in need of:
a set of foosballs for the foosball table
a set of balls for the pool table
a cue rack
a cue ball
pool cue chalk
Please contact Nick Sperry @ nsperry@emmanuel-elca.org if you'd like to donate or need more information.

EVERYONE needs Snack Time! A snack of fruit or vegetables helps you amp up your nutrient intake. A snack helps you to not overeat because you are so hungry from not eating that you then overindulge. It can help you sleep, so an after-dinner snack is OK if you practice portion control and stay within your daily calorie quota. A snack can give you energy to stay focused, like fruits and nuts or seeds. Really helpful about 2 or 3 in the afternoon when I want to take a nap!!! Yea snacks!

Thank You for Supporting Coffee Talk!!
A note of gratitude to all who supported Coffee Talk recently at Bocca Lupo’s “Pizza for a Cause” event. As a result, the restaurant awarded a check for $1201 to the organization. This will enable us to provide our less fortunate brothers and sisters with necessary items. Thank you for opening your generous hearts and enjoying the pizza too!
