Social Concerns Announcements:

Garden Market:

After a year’s absence, the Social Concerns Committee is happy to report that the Summer Garden Market will again be returning to First Lutheran Church this summer. Beginning the weekend of June 25th and 26th and going through the rest of the growing season, First Lutheran Church gardeners are encouraged to bring in their excess fruits, vegetables and baked goods.  For those who don’t garden, this is a great opportunity to buy some home grown vegetables and fruit! All proceeds will go to ELCA World Hunger. Let us pay generously for the produce we buy, so that others may be fed!  These vegetables, fruits, and baked goods will then be made available to First Lutheran Members before and after church services on Saturday night and Sunday Mornings for the rest of the growing season. Those obtaining these goods are then asked to provide a free-will donation with the funds going to the ELCA World Hunger Campaign.  

Since the church is closed on Saturday, it would be suggested that gardeners bring their produce in either on Friday during the day or just before the Saturday Evening Worship Service beginning at 5:00 p.m. Produce can also be brought in on Sunday before the 9:30am worship service.     

Please note there is both a plastic and a wooden Receptacle for gifts to the WASHINGTON COUNTY FOOD PANTRY are available to receive your food donations at FLC at any time! 

Wednesday, July

13th, 2022

WE REMEMBER IN OUR PRAYERS

Please keep these people in your thoughts and prayers
