Thankoffering Sunday– November 24Thankofferings show gratitude for God’s blessings and give us an important and tangible way to express that gratitude.  It is a tradition grounded in our celebration of community, of meeting together to joyfully give thanks for what God has given us.  Thankofferings have always been, and still are, our opportunity to say thank you to God in both significant and ordinary moments.
   
Thankoffering will be during worship on Sunday, November 24, hosted by our congregational unit of Women of the ELCA.  Everyone is welcome to give thankoffering that day!
