FLC SUNDAY SCHOOL 2022-2023—We have officially began teaching our youth.  The chart is set up in the narthex and the members are invited once again to sign up to teach one Sunday this year.  (Or more if you want!) The children will be released as we begin the Gospel reading. The classes will be held in the Library and will last approximately 15-20 minutes.  All materials will be readily available for you.  Very little preparation is required.  Thank you in advance for sharing your faith with our youth!

CTS TASK FORCE MEETING will meet at noon on Sunday, September 25.

FIRST RESPONDERS APPRECIATION DRIVE-THRU MEAL
     On Tuesday, September 27, we will say thank you to the First Responders in Lucas County – outside of Chariton – by providing them and their families a drive-thru dinner at First Lutheran from 5-7 pm.  They will have a choice of a steak or chicken sandwich or a hotdog, together with baked beans, potato chips, and a drink.  It is our way of saying thank you for all that they do to protect and serve the people of Lucas County.  The meal is free to all the First Responders and their families.
If you would like to help BBQ the meat, plate, or serve there is a sign-up sheet in the narthex on the table by the baptismal font.  Your assistance would be greatly appreciated. 
     If you’d like to make a donation towards the cost of the meal, since the meal is free to the First Responders and their families, please give your gift either in an envelope marked “First Responder’s Meal” or so designate on the memo line of your check.  Your gift can be placed in the offering plate, mailed to the church, or dropped off at the church office.  It is with great thankfulness and joy we look forward to saying thank you to these First Responders of Lucas County.
