Faith Formation Ministry
  
One Family Bible Class
There are no bible classes this Sunday because it is Confirmation Sunday.
  
Stewardship Sentence

Acts 16:9 "And a vision appeared to Paul in the night: a man of Macedonia was standing there, urging him and saying, "Come over to Macedonia and help us."" God does all the saving of the Macedonians - but He does it through the ministry of St. Paul who was called to go and help them out. How is the Lord calling you to use your gifts for His work?

Women's Bible Study Breakfast Potluck

Join the Women's Thursday Evening Bible Study for a breakfast potluck! All confirmed women are invited starting at 9:00am on Saturday, May 7, at the Frimels.  No need to RSVP, just bring your favorite breakfast item and join us for food, fun, and fellowship!

Calling All Crafters!


We will be hosting another craft fair this fall on Saturday, October 15, 2016 from 9 A.M. to 2 P.M  All kinds of crafts are needed to make the fair a success.  If you have a special talent that you would like to showcase, here is your chance.  All money's collected from the sale will be used for the repair of the organ. We understand that this repair will require the removal of all the pipes to get to the problem area.   If you plan to donate to the fair please let the Nifty Knitters and the Clever Crocheters know what you have in mind.  Place your ideas for donations in Sally Dobrunz's box. Thanks in advance for your donations.  

Rummage Sale--Save the Date!
It is getting close to time for our annual rummage sale. Items can be brought to the gym beginning on Sunday, June 19. Look for a volunteer sign-up sheet to be posted on the kiosk soon.

Membership Class

Interested in becoming a member of Glendale Lutheran Church? Or are you already a member and just want to brush up on basic doctrine and teaching? A four week membership class will begin on Sunday, May 8 during the Bible class hour (beginning approximately 10:30 a.m. following the church service). We will meet in room 211 (the corner meeting room upstairs with the preschool). Child care will be provided if needed. Contact Pastor Wise with questions.

Children's Worship Materials
We are looking for someone to take charge of the children's worship materials at the back  of the church. This would entail periodically checking the bags to ensure each is stocked with paper, crayons, etc. If you are interesting in serving this way, please contact the church office.
