Cake Decorating Fundraiser Saturday, May 14th 10:00 - Noon. 
A Faith Lutheran School parent and chef is teaching the Wilton Method of Cake Decorating, Five Steps to a Great Cake.  All the proceeds from this class will be donated to the Sprinkler Fund.  The cost is $30 with supplies and icing provided.  A few spots are still available, registration deadline is Thursday!  Contact Sheila Lillo at 229-7901 to sign up or for more information.

Thinking of doing some spring cleaning?  
Wondering what to do with the unwanted items?  We have a solution!  Set them aside until May 21st for the school and camp parking lot sale.  The proceeds from this sale will benefit the sprinkler fund and the school.  Due to limited storage at this facility, please keep your items until May 16th. 

June 5th at 4:00pm
we will have an opportunity to fellowship with the Schnecks before they leave for their new calls this summer.  Plan to come let the Schnecks know how important they have been to the ministry at Faith. Mark your calendars, more information coming soon.

This summer, Faith will have a youth group coming to help with our soccer camp.  
Housing is needed for the group coming up from Our Redeemer in Madison, Wisconsin.  There will be 15 high schoolers and 9 chaperones.  We will need to provide accommodations beginning June 26th until the morning of July 3rd.  Call or text Pastor Chris for more information at 792-9788.

The sprinkler project will again be in full swing beginning the first of June.  Sprinklers will be installed downstairs over the  summer.  Volunteers are needed to help with the renovations.  Property committee will now be meeting every Tuesday at 5:30.  These first meetings will be focused on scheduling, selection of lights, paint, and cabinets.  Then once school is out for the summer, classrooms will be emptied and demo begins.  The plan is to have work nights on Tuesday and Thursdays through out the summer just like we did with the preschool remodel.  No experience is needed to volunteer just a willingness to help.  The plan is to have meals for  work nights as well.  Come to the meeting on Tuesday at 5:30 to volunteer or contact Mike Klebs at Mike.Klebs@gmail.com.
In the coming weeks, more information regarding the Sprinkler Fund will be posted in the bulletin.  For any questions, contact Channing Lillo at Channing.Lillo@gmail.com.

As summer is quickly approaching and we all begin enjoying the great state of Alaska, remember the ministry of the church does not take a vacation.  One way to consistently support our church is through electronic giving to automate your weekly offering.  Electronic giving is a convenient way to keep up with your intended offerings when you are traveling or other circumstances prevent you from attending the services.  To sign up contact Sheila Lillo in the office at 563-3499 or FaithLutheran@gci.net.
