Faith participates in Relay for Life
The Faith Lutheran ChurchTeam is signed-up for Relay For Life! Not
sure what this HUGE, nationwide event is all about? Well, almost all of
us have been touched by cancer in some way, so we've decided to make a
difference by walking and raising money in the American Cancer Society
Relay For Life event. Sign up, and at the event our team will camp out
overnight and take turns walking around the track to raise money and
awareness to help the American Cancer Society in the world’s largest
fight for more birthdays. What a great way to let our lights shine for
Jesus!

In No Way Do We Want to Rush the Season, but...
We don't want to rush anyone's Christmas and Epiphany celebrations. We just want to invite you to join us...
On Saturday January 12 beginning at 11 AM, we'll be gathering to pack up our Christmas decorations around church and the fellowship hall. Once everything is back in storage for another year, we'll put on the sunscreen and enjoy some delicious food that everyone brings, themed around a Lutheran Luau. Well now, if you've ever been to a Hawaiian luau, you might have eaten things like roast pork, fish, and fruits. This website details many foods served at a traditional luau. Here is another site that offers luau recipes. But what is a Lutheran Luau? That will be determined by the foods that you bring!
We're hoping to have a good time, and we hope you will join us! And you will be home well before any important NFL games!
Putting up the Christmas decorations is such a fun and enjoyable
time for many people; however, taking those same decorations down and
packing them away can be tedious and maybe even somewhat depressing.
We're attempting to infuse joy into the take-down process by doing it
together as a fellowship activity, and then enjoying a themed pot luck
meal together!
