Church Family News…

    Thank you to our faithful celebrants: Fr. George Schulenberg, Pastor Don Peterson, and Fr. Steve Schaitberger. We are very blessed to have several supply priests/pastors that willingly share their time with us! We are also blessed to have the musical talents of our regular organist, Deborah Embretson, and subs Carol Andstrom and Mark Helland. Thanks to all who help make our worship prayerful & holy and our coffee hour a great place for fellowship!

    Virginia Reed passed away on July 28th at Mill Street Residence. Her funeral will be on Sat. Aug. 7th at 10:30am.

    “Virginia Reed Day” was celebrated June 24th at the hospital. Virginia served the hospital as a volunteer for the past 25 years. She was quoted by the local paper saying “I was having fun. I don’t know why you should get a reward for that.”

    Your input for the structure and study in Adult Forum is needed. Please fill out a survey or email your input to the church.

    Congratulations to Edna & Gabe Hermes on the birth of their 34th (yes, that is correct!) great grandchild. Soleese Nelson was born on June 16th. She is the daughter of Eric & Kary Nelson of Perham.

    Congratulations to Mike Tuel on his recent golfing success!

    Jinna Matthiesen sent her address and email address to the church. Please call Carrie if you would like to have either address.

Block Party at St. James!!

The Block Party held at St. James on July 28th was a success! Thanks so much to all that helped! The weather was beautiful! The neighbors and church members in attendance shared food and fellowship, enjoyed games and music, and celebrated a joyous evening. We hope to make this an annual event with our neighbors around Lake Alice! The free will offering given that evening was sent to Wadena for their relief fund for the tornado in June.
