Joint Announcements

Daylight Savings Time ends remember to set your clocks back an hour on Saturday, November 2nd.

St John and Immanuel Members - Christmas Cantata practice is on Sunday evenings at 7:00 pm at St. John’s. If you have any questions, please talk to Kevin. The performance is on Sunday December 15th at 3:00pm.

Faith Lutheran in Humboldt-Mission Sunday Everyone is invited to attend on November 3, 2024, with lunch from 12:00-1:00 pm and program at 1:00 pm. They would like a count of people for planning purposes. If you plan on attending, please email Pastor Llewellyn at tjllew4j@gmail.com.

Two Important Ballot Initiatives will be on the ballot for this year. The first one is Initiative 434. A yes vote would protect all the legislative gains to protect the lives of babies in the womb and still give room for future legislation to protect the lives of babies. The second one is Initiative 439. This initiative would enshrine abortion into our state's constitution. As this is violates God's command to protect life, it is imperative that every Christian voter votes no to this initiative. To summarize, a pro-life vote yes for Initiative 434 and vote no for Initiative 439.

Immanuel’s Announcements

The Women of Immanuel is sponsoring Immanuel's Annual Food Drive for our Thanksgiving food sacks and local families. The Thanksgiving food sacks with contents for a Thanksgiving dinner will go to families through the Freeman and Sterling Schools. Please bring your food donations to the annex by November 17th.

St. John’s Announcements

Just a friendly reminder if you need to use the church facilities, please reach out to a trustee & church office to make sure it gets put on the church calendar to avoid any conflict of dates.

Voter’s meeting - With great reluctance, due to lack of a teacher, small class size  and state regulations, the voters assembly voted to close the preschool, with the hope of reopening if the need arises again. If you have questions please ask Pastor, Steve or Board of Education member.

Thank you to the Herb Lueders family for the luster stone pavement for his memorial. It looks wonderful!

Thank you to all volunteers who help with projects throughout the year, such as mowing, biblical gardens and all the various projects. You are appreciated! The body of Christ could not function without you.

Food Shelf Challenge Stewardship Board was approved for the Thrivent’s Give Thanks and Give Back Food Shelf Challenge.  We need to collect at least 500 non-perishable food items from October 15-November 15 for SENCA. When the challenge is met, SENCA will receive an additional $500.00 from Thrivent.  The food drive will be supplemented with a Generosity Multiplier Gift, courtesy of the Thrivent Member Network – Nebraska Region. More information is listed on the insert and on the display.

Trunk or Treat will be at the square on Oct. 31st from 5:30-7:30 pm. St. John’s has the NW side for setting up trunks and serving hot dogs and hot chocolate. Set up time is 4:30 pm – 5:15 pm. Contact Patti or Cheryl with any questions.

Thank you -I would like to thank everyone for all the prayers, thoughts and support that I have received over the past several weeks/months. There have been several others who have been needing our thoughts and prayers at that same time, and I am so grateful to be a part of this church family that cares so much and gives so much of themselves that it can be spread over so many lives. There never seems to be a shortage of caring, loving people and prayers! Thank you again with all my heart! ~Lisa Bartels
