Sunday, September 29 was a busy day! Our High School Youth who attended the ELCA Triennial Youth Gathering in New Orleans last July led our worship service. First year Confirmation students received their new Bibles and we had a Blessing of the Backpacks for all ages. Blessings abound!

As we pray for all those affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton, there are ways to help financially with the disaster relief efforts. One way is to donate to Lutheran Disaster Response.

Lutheran Disaster Response works with its partners to provide immediate relief, such as water, food, clothing, gift cards, tarps and other needs. Since many hurricanes also require a long-term response, Lutheran Disaster Response provides support on the long road to recovery with disaster case management, construction management, attention to unmet needs, and emotional and spiritual care.

Gifts to Lutheran Disaster Response with the designation “Hurricane Response" will be used in full (100%) to assist those affected by hurricanes, until the response is complete. To give online click the blue link below. To give by phone, call 800-638-3522. Mail checks to: Lutheran Disaster Response P.O. Box 1809 Merrifield, VA 22116-8009. Thank you for your generosity!

Our Quilters meet the first and third Wednesdays of the month, September through May. Many thanks to this group of talented women for the love they sew into their quilts. They make quilts for Lutheran World Relief, local needs, and special quilts for our Luck Lutheran High School graduates.  As of May, they have made 36 mission quilts and six quilts for our graduates. Thank you, ladies! Your gifts and talents in this outreach ministry are so appreciated!

The OFJ celebrated Trunk or Treat on October 30th. We had many trunks to stop by and some games, cookie decorating, pumpkin decorating, and pictures inside the church! Thank you to everyone who helped make this event a success!
