Scavenger Hunt Food Drive

Immanuel's 4th-7th grade Sunday School class will be doing a scavenger hunt food drive on Friday, November 15th. We will start east of the church around 4:30 pm and will work our way towards Huron. The collected items will be donated to the Salvation Army Food Pantry. The youth will have a list of items to earn them scavenger hunt points, but any non-perishable items that you donate will be more than appreciated. Last year, they collected 10,600 scavenger hunt points so they hope to get even more this year. If you will not be home, but would like to donate you may leave items at the church or talk to Jodi to make other arrangements. Thank you in advance for helping us "Can Hunger!"

Thoughts & Prayers for Rick & LeShea

Our thoughts and prayers are with Rick, LeShea & family during this very difficult time after the loss of Rick's mother, Maryrose Avery.
Maryrose's Obituary



The congregation also received a thank you card from Nick & Tari (Zeeck) Heitman. Tari wrote the following note.
   "There's No Place Like Home!!"
   "Our words cannot express how grateful and thankful we are to all of my home church family and friends! We've had quite a bit of nasty unexpecteds this last month, but your kindness and generosities are very humbly and very much unexpected happily! A 'thank you' card does not truly express how appreciative we are of your donations and matching funds! From hotel room and food expenses and the mounting hospital charges we will definitely have use for them. THANK YOU!!
Nick has made great strides in recovering! Thanks be to God and all of your prayers! Rest, therapy & patience are our only battles to conquer today!"
  Thanks Again!!
  Tari, Nick & Family
