Bulletin Announcements - July 18, 2010

Assistive Hearing Devices Are Available at Every Worship Service The sound system includes five assistive hearing devices, which are available for your use.  These are wireless receivers with a single earpiece.  They are easy to use and very unobtrusive – your fellow congregants are unlikely to notice that you're using one.  If you're interested in giving one of our assistive hearing devices a try, just ask an usher for one when you enter the sanctuary.  Hearing aids should be removed before using the church's assistive device. Please remember to return the earpiece and the receiver to an usher at the end of worship, so that we can clean it and have it ready the next time you or someone else wants to use it.  Thanks! 

We, the members of Central Lutheran Church, affirm that Christ has made us one body with many members, all sharing in God's wondrous grace and unconditional love.  We celebrate both the human variation and inclusive unity of God's family.  Following Jesus' example, we embrace all of God's people, regardless of ethnicity, physical and mental abilities, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity, or economic circumstance.  With welcoming hearts, we invite you to join us in worship, fellowship, and ministry.

We encourage you to read next Sunday’s Lessons ahead of time, they are: Genesis 18:20-32 Psalm 138, Colossians 2:6-15 [16-19], Luke 11:1-13.

Everyone is invited to the 90th birthday party for Helga DeFoe on Sunday, July 25, 10:15am in the parish hall.

The Wednesday morning 6:30am Women’s Bible Study Group will meet for the month of July in the shelter at Hendricks Park.  We welcome visitors to share prayer, conversation, breakfast and the fresh air.  We use the study from “Lutheran Woman Today.”

Bridal Shower   Annie Kegel will be in town on July 29th for a bridal shower in the parish hall at 7pm.  All women of Central are invited to celebrate this special occasion.  Annie will be married in Minnesota in September.  She is registered at Macy’s and Target. Gift certificates are recommended, but if you have a special gift planned or something you have made there will be some room in the Kegel’s car as they drive to the wedding. Please wrap gift certificates in a box or bag so there will be gifts to open and ribbons and bows.  A picture of the gift chosen would be great.

CLCW August Mission – First Place Center school supplies.  A barrel will be in the narthex in August for donations.  Supplies needed:  backpacks, pens, spiral notebooks, pee-chee folders, rulers, calculators new or used (in good condition)

CLC Cascades Camping/Hiking Weekend: Think about saving the first weekend in August, the 6th -8th , on your summer calendar for a Central Lutheran Church sponsored camping trip that will include an optional hike to the summit of South Sister. We’ll camp at Crane Prairie Campground along the north shore of Crane Prairie Reservoir, a popular fishing site. Showers are available nearby. For those interested we’ll hike the South Sister on Saturday. For those not interested in the hike, plenty of other ways exist to enjoy this tranquil setting while spending time with your fellow Centralites.  For more information and to indicate your interest in joining us, please speak to Pastor John or Margit Kegel.
