Join us Sunday, August 7, during adult bible study, for an egg burrito breakfast (goodwill offering) and a special speaker from Mosaic. All proceeds will go to the LCMS’ Million Dollar Match grant program. Our goal at St. James is to raise $1000 by August 31 and LCMS will match our donation!
- Glen-Ed Pantry – School Supply Drive
-
Today, July 31, is the last day for collecting school supplies, but volunteers are still needed to put backpack supplies together by grade level and hand out supplies on August 6. Please visit the Glen-Ed Pantry Volunteer page to sign up.
- Fundraiser for Mosaic's Ultrasound Machine
-
St. James is joining 9 other Lutheran churches in the area to raise funds to replace one of Mosaic’s inoperative ultrasound machines. Without this new ultrasound machine, they cannot provide a way for mothers to see their baby in the womb. It is well-documented that a very high number of women (90+%) choose life after they see a picture of their baby through an ultrasound.
Please prayerfully consider supporting this ministry. We have provided a donation box in the stairwell, or you can donate through offering, or through Tithe.ly, by selecting “Life Ministry.” This effort is part of the LCMS’ Million Dollar Match grant program. Our goal at St. James is to raise $1000 by August 31 and LCMS will match our donation!
