CMU GRADUATION
Once again, getting ready for the CMU graduation.  Some of you have already talked with me about availability and some of you regulars have not responded.  Please let me know if or when you may be available to help out.  Once again, the graduation is set for Dec 13th.
 
Pastor Bakker – please follow up with LSF.  I have already offered another youth group to help out because I am not sure of what participation we will get from our high school students.
 
Standing by, Todd

We have a great new bulletin board at Zion. Please check it out for the latest news on what is happening at Zion and CTK. There is also a place for community news regarding special events that we should all be aware of, or when someone in our congregation has made the news.

On the home page of our web site is access to the daily "Portals of Prayer" and "The Lutheran Hour." It's available 24/7 over the web.

The greeting committee needs a few more people to be greeters. Anyone that can smile and shake someones hand is eligible. It is a really satisfying way to start our worship service.

A few people are needed to be available to sit with guest during each service to help them with any questions they might have. Please let the Pastors or anyone on the evangelism committee know if your are willing to help.
