     "Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others,
as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms."  1 Peter 4:10

     On January 29, 2023 the WMF ladies served lunch for the Annual Congregational Meeting. It was wonderful to have such a terrific turnout! Unfortunately, we ran out of food. Our apologies to those who weren't able to have a sandwich.  We served 84 sandwiches! We promise to do better next time. A reminder that there is a sign-up sheet for the Lenten suppers on Wednesdays starting February 22. The three circles are down for serving and there are a couple of open dates.  Anyone is welcome to help serve. It could be a family, youth group, Sunday School, or whomever. You can then choose who or where you would like the freewill offering to go. 

     Due to the upcoming construction for the roof rafters, our quilting dates will be moved to Monday, March 20 and Tuesday, March 21 (if needed).
 

     The WMF Serving Committee was again honored to be serving at the funeral of Shirley Peterson on Thursday, February 16, 2023.  Shirley had been struggling with health issues for quite some time. She is now at peace. Tamra worked on the serving committee with Shirley for many years. She was such a willing worker!  Tamra learned about serving from this wonderful group of ladies; JoAnn Loken, Phyllis Forss, Lolis Nesseth, and now Shirley.   Emmanuel is blessed to have had these women and those before them give their contributions of time and talents. We must continue to honor that.
