Mission Action Sewing ladies will be meeting on Wednesday, August 9th and August 23rd at 8:30 a.m. Please join them at 8:30 a.m. until noon or part of the morning. It is a time of fellowship in preparing quilts and lap robes for those in need and much appreciated. There are many tasks to be done that do not require actual sewing. All quilts are given locally as there is a great need in our area. The ladies also remember Immanuel high school graduates, new brides of Immanuel and make baby quilts for new babies as they are baptized at Immanuel.
The 29th annual convention of the NIS Women of the ELCA will be held on Saturday, September 16th, 2017 at Immanuel Lutheran Church in Dixon. The $35.00 registration fee is due on August 18th. There are more details on the table in the Narthex.
The last Bible study of the summer – “All Anew Ready or Not” session III will be presented by Pastor Bree at our circle meeting on Tuesday, August 15th with Miriam Circle, Hostess. The theme of the study – “Upend the Tables” as taken from the Book of Romans helps us to think about things a little differently empowering us to question what we see in ourselves, our congregation and the world. Please join us as we also will make final plans with those attending the synod convention. All women of Immanuel are members of WELCA and encouraged to attend.
