We say thanks to Brian McElroy and Brian Hickman for repairing the exterior of the south aide of our sanctuary. The south side of buildings usually gets the worst of sun and weather damage and that’s true for our sanctuary and office space. Brian and Brian washed, scraped, filled, caulked, primed and painted the wood portions on the south side. They even replaced some boards that were too far gone. So we give a big Thank You! To Brian and Brian for many hours of work fixing up our building before winter is here!
Share your smile! The First Lutheran Family bulletin board is great for helping us learn each other’s names but it is missing a few friendly faces. Also, some of the pictures are a little dated! We’re happy to snap your picture after church, or you can send one you like to FLCEburg@yahoo.com . Pictures are cropped to 4 ½”W x 4”H, with a label added over the bottom inch.
Please Check the Old Photo Envelope in the fellowship hall by the kitchen door. We have some older pictures that will be thrown out soon, so please take a look at them to see if there is one or two you may want! From now on, this envelope will be where we place unclaimed photos and old cards before they’re thrown out.
Stickers Wanted! Donations of small, fun, possibly textured stickers are wanted for the Sunday School class!
The Candy Wagon is Back! On October 31st we are hosting our open gym as part of the Ellensburg Downtown Association’s Trick-or-Treat Harvest Fest. In preparation, we are asking for donations of individually-wrapped candy and small child friendly prizes to hand out to the trick-or-treaters. Please place donations in the Candy Wagon in the fellowship hall!
Taize Prayer Service is back at Grace Episcopal at 5pm on the last Sunday of the month (Sunday the 26th in October). Come as you are to this short and simple prayer service followed by a simple meal. (FLC will host it there in either October or November).
