TO NOTE:

Lutheran Theological Seminary Saskatoon is conducting a series of short surveys to assess the presence of lay leadership in ministries and congregations and to determine how we might support lay leaders. Please fill out this six-question survey as we engage in this important and necessary work together. https://forms.gle/yCp17ET4NeK2ed6BA

Thank you so much for your continued collaboration and support. You are a blessing to us and our work here at LTS.

The Health Cabinet Christmas Hamper Appeal will run through the month of November until Sunday, Dec. 3rd. If you would like to contribute to Christmas Hampers, please indicate so on your offering envelope, cheque or e-transfer. The goal is to raise $1400 in support of 20 families in need. We have about $1100 to go.

If you would like to share any extra Christmas Cookies for our Christmas Hampers there is a sign up sheet on the Health Cabinet board. Cookies to be brought to Church Dec. 10 or before, OR contact Linda Catton if you need to make other arrangements. Cookies should be sturdy for packing and nut free. And if you have any extra Christian themed Christmas Cards or large Christmas gift bags you would like to donate for our Christmas Hampers there is a box by the Health Cabinet Board you can place them in. Packing day of Christmas Hampers will be on Dec. 10 after church.

Have a blessed weekend!
