Noon Q & A
All who have trusted in Christ possess the priceless bounty of “every spiritual blessing in Christ”. Yet many continue to live like spiritual paupers. Paul writes this epistle to make Christians more aware of their heavenly wealth in Christ and to motivate them to draw upon those resources in their earthly walk.
JUNE IS BREAKFAST MONTH at the Ministries Center. Examples would be pancake & waffle mix, syrup, biscuit mix, muffin mix, coffee, tea, and juice boxes. Thank you!
THE LAWN MOWING SCHEDULE HAS BEEN POSTED on the bulletin board in the Fireside Room at FLC! Please check your schedules to see when you might be able to help with this important ministry.

CINNAMON ROLL SUNDAYS WILL BE BACK FOR THE SUMMER MONTHS!!
The youth attending the next Youth Gathering will be serving cinnamon rolls on the 3rd Sunday of June, July, & August – the Sundays that we will be having outdoor worship services – in exchange for a free-will donation. All donations will be put toward the next Youth Gathering!
THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING OUR YOUTH!!
THE COLLECTING OF STAMPS WILL CONTINUE UNTIL SEPTEMBER!! Southeastern Iowa Synodical Women’s Organization is working with other Women of the ELCA groups to donate canceled stamps to the ministry of Lutheran World Relief. The canceled stamps are sent to a group that sorts and sells used stamps to collectors around the world. Thus far, 65 million stamps have been collected by this group in Kyle, Texas, and they have donated $42,000 to the shipping fund of Lutheran World Relief to ship quilts and kits around the world. To help you participate, we provide the following information: not only canceled stamps but unused ones as well; commemorative and seasonal stamps are most valued. Cut the stamps from the envelope leaving 1/4 inch around the stamps so as not to damage the stamps. Continue to save your stamps and drop them into the container on the desk in the Fireside Room at First Lutheran.
