FATHER’S DAY POT LUCK/SUNDAY SCHOOL FUN DAY Next Sunday bring your favorite pot luck dish, your lawn chairs and any outside games you’d like to play, and join with your church family for a delicious meal, and a relaxed, fun time. It will all happen after the 10:45 am service. There will also be an Ice Cream Sundae Bar…YUMMY! You are welcome to dress casually for church.
HELPING WITH SLEEPING SPACE We have housed and will continue to provide a space for individuals and groups who come to help with the tornado relief. We have acquired bunk beds that have been set up in the Youth Trailer for this purpose. So, if you see tired, but smiling happy folks on the property, just say “Hi, and thank you!”
THRIVENT MATCHING FUNDS If you would like to donate money for tornado relief to either Immanuel or Peace Lutheran in Joplin, Thrivent will match $1.00 for each $3.00 raised. You can give your donation through Good Shepherd, and we will see that it goes where you have designated it.
SOFTBALL The co-ed team plays at 7:30 on Monday evening. The Tuesday night men’s team will play at 6:30.
CROSSLINES WORK DAY is this Friday beginning at 8:00 am. If you have an interest in helping, and need more information, give Nan B.
ASSISTIVE LISTENING If you are having a hard time hearing the service, assistive listening devices are available from the ushers. They work like a transistor radio and you can control the volume.
TAPES OF THE SERVICE Audio tapes of the service are available after the 8:15 am service each Sunday. They are located in the glassed-door cabinet in the narthex. Tapes of the previous Sunday are also available.
PRAYER BEARS are in the sanctuary pews and available to be signed out (notebook in narthex) and given to anyone that needs God’s love, comfort, and peace. We have had reports and words of thanks from folks being blessed by this outreach ministry.
BLOOD PRESSURE CHECKS are available in the narthex after each service. You will be given a small form that can be carried in your wallet which will include medical information and a log of your blood pressure readings.
