CIDER MILL / CORN MAZE OUTING

On Sunday, October 10, we would like as many members as possible to join us for an outing to the cider mill and corn maze at Long Family Orchard, Farm, and Cider Mill.  We will meet about 4:00 PM.  Please RSPV to welsnovi@aol.com to let us know how many we can expect.

TRUNK OR TREAT

          We will have our annual Trunk or Treat on Sunday, October 17 from 3:00-5:00 PM. In order to be assured that we will provide an enjoyable experience for the guests who might come to us, we need to know who would be willing and able to decorate their cars and be here for the Trunk or Treat. As of this writing, are you able to be here? If so, please speak to Pastor Schroeder at your earliest convenience. We should have at least eight vehicles; more are better.

OCTOBER SERVICES

We will have several services with various emphases this month.

   October 10 -- MLC (Martin Luther College) Sunday, focusing on pastors and teachers for the future of our congregations

   October 24 -- Liturgy Sunday, an explanation of the order of service we use

   October 31 -- Reformation Sunday

OFFICE HOURS
          Office hours are Monday-Thursday, 9:00 AM – Noon.

COLLEGE STUDENTS

          If you are attending college, you might find your faith under a greater attack than it has been.  You need Jesus and a church to attend all the more during these years.  In order to ensure a connection with a congregation near your school and to maintain contact with Good Shepherd, we need your contact information while you are at school.  We will help you find a church in your area which is faithful to God's word.  You will also be supplied with devotional materials for your daily benefit.  Please email the church (welsnovi@aol.com) to update your contact information.

SHARE THIS POST!
We desire as many as possible to rejoice in the Gospel which we proclaim and confess.  Share the information from our weekly email blast, links to our web page, and even to the pastor's blog to let others know that we have a space in our congregation for them!

In Christ,

Pastor Schroeder
