Join us on Saturday, December 21, 2019, from 4pm-6pm at Faith Lutheran Church for a unique, multi-sensory Christmas family event called “The Miracle of Jesus!”

Your family will step back in time to Bible-times Bethlehem, exploring Jesus’ miraculous love in an interactive marketplace setting.

Kids and adults will be placed in a fully immersive experience where you interact with shopkeepers and discover surprising details about Jesus from Bethlehem characters such as the census taker, the wool trader, and the fisherman. Get ready to build memories as you follow the town map and collect stamps at each station, including “The Bakery,” “The Spice Shop,” and “The Stable.”

During your travels, you will also create adorable keepsakes that will remind you of God’s eternal love and help you grow closer as a family.

At one stop, the stable, you will experience a fun, interactive drama that retells the joy of Jesus’ birth as we join to sing the angels shouting, “Gloria.”

Brews & Bible Study. Wednesday, June 5 at Viking Brew Pub, Stoughton at 7pm.

Join us for a monthly informal Bible Study ‘hopping’ around to various microbreweries. Our first study is Wednesday, June 5 at the Viking brew Pub in Stoughton at 7pm.  We will discuss a Let the Bird Fly Podcast episode on “Vocation.”

Please listen in advance to add to the discussion.

The pick-up from our Spring Cleaning Drive is now complete! We got to (almost) every home we hung a door hanger at. If we missed you, we’re sorry! You can still donate by dropping items off here at Faith anytime through Saturday, April 6. (We will sort items first before taking them to the Food Pantry on April 6)

We’ve been thrilled with the positive responses from our community! A big thank you to all of our volunteers who helped hang flyers and collect items!

Here’s what we’re accepting:
unopened hygiene & cleaning products, including:

• Laundry Detergent (preferably non-scented)
• Personal Hygiene Products (deodorant, toothpaste, shampoo, etc.)
• Feminine Hygiene Products
• Multipurpose Cleaners

The end of the year is a time of giving.  Often we see that we have “extra” from the Lord (which is really His in the first place) to give.  Below are some items that various committees of Faith have decided would be nice to have.  These are things that our committees think will benefit those we serve in one way or another. 

Use your “designated offering” envelopes to give towards a certain item.

Thrivent Members may also apply for up to 2 Action Grants per year, each in the amount of $250.  Many items on this list may fit the criteria for the grants.  Talk to Pastor or Rick W. if you need help applying.
