Hunger Appeal Spotlight #1

November 8, 2013 By Faith

We focus special offerings on world hunger each November. Our 2013 goal is to raise $10,000 to help fight hunger this month.

Lutheran World Relief is just one recipient of the offerings. LWR leads the way in stewarding resources to provide food for those in refugee camps Hey also help people in desperate situations be able to feed themselves. Just one example of their work can be seen in Bihar, India, where the average annual income is $360.  LWR helps increase crop production and storage, provides rice, and gives opportunities for children to attend school.

We’ll be lifting up the November Hunger Appeal, and the organizations it will support, throughout the month. If you’d like to learn more about the appeal, click here.

You can give to the November Hunger Appeal with your Thanksgiving and special Mission Sunday offering envelopes.

High-5: Back to (Sunday) School

September 18, 2013 By Faith

Along with helping ground our children in the faith, Sunday School is one of Faith’s most important outreach ministries. It draws families who might not otherwise participate in the church. Please pray for all our Sunday School students, their teachers and families, that God will use this ministry to build up faith in Jesus.

Sunday School is also a significant expense for Faith’s program budget. That is why we are tying the fourth of this year’s High-5 special offerings to this important ministry. These five offerings were designed to bring forward some of the major offering income that is usually required at year’s end to meet all our ministry expenses.

During September, High-5: Back to (Sunday) School will provide an opportunity to support Sunday School and other vital ministries of Faith with a special gift or perhaps to catch up on offerings after summer travels. Please consider prayerfully how God has blessed you to be a blessing to others.

The start of another year of Sunday School kicks off with the Extravaganza on Sunday, September 8.

“Returns” on Offerings

July 23, 2013 By Faith

Every dollar given to Faith Lutheran Church impacts our ability to serve our surrounding community and the world. Here are just a few results of generous offerings so far in 2013:

  • K.K. Alavi and his son Abdul visited Faith and many other churches in April to present their ministry to Muslims in India. Through the New Hope Mission Society, Faith Lutheran is a major supporter of K.K.’s remarkable ministry.
  • Faith hosted two special visitors from Ethiopia in the last year. Pastor Dawit and Pastor Belete are part of the fast-growing Ethiopian Evangelical Church Mekane Yesus. Through the Augustana District, Faith supports them and other mission projects in Ethiopia.
  • Club 218 was inspired by a mission trip to West Virginia and named for the Bible verse James 2:18. Now in its seventh year, it is a summer day-camp for children from lower-income households, led and staffed by high school youth from several churches.

  • Mission Trips are the highlight of the summer for many high school youth. This year, 90 young people and adults traveled to New Orleans to serve people in need, bond in Christian community and grow in faith.

  • Three sessions of Vacation Bible School are held each summer together with Christ the King. Children hear the good news in a week filled with activities, games and songs.
  • Nearly every Sunday in the summer, hundreds of people gather for outdoor worship in Library Square. Many others join in worship earlier on Sundays at the church.

  • Through the Augustana District, Faith’s pastors have helped many new or struggling churches with supply preaching, consultations and ordinations.

Thank you to all the generous supporters at Faith Lutheran!

It conveys our trust that God will amaze us even more in the future. It also calls all of us in this family of Faith to invest ourselves in the mission of bringing the good news of Jesus Christ to a world broken by sin. Continue Reading
