 UPDATE–3rd Quarter Mission Offerings Concordia Theological Seminary – Fort Wayne

 

Thank-you members of St. Peter for supporting missions this quarter! Thank-you for being gracious givers for the Lord’s work and sharing your love and care for others. The amount of our Offering for CTSFW 2,990.00. We were able to take the check to CTSFW on Donation Day this past Tuesday along with all the generous offerings of Food and Clothing. We were able to attend Chapel and have lunch with the Seminary and Deaconess students to get to know them and hear how
God led them to say: “Yes Lord, Send Me” to CTSFW to become Pastors and Deaconesses. An added highlight of the afternoon was being able to be part of the LWML Choir at Worship Anew. The recorded hymns will be part of Worship Services that will be broadcast in the future. Continue to keep CTSFW – Students, Faculty, and Staff in your prayers.

Sunday will be LWML Celebration Sunday! Their motto is all about willing service and the attitude of joyfully serving. Serve the Lord with gladness! Psalm 100:2 Since 1942, Lutheran Women in Mission has focused on affirming each woman’s oneness with Christ, encouraging and equipping women to live out their Christian lives in active mission ministries and to support global missions. They have been, and are ready to, serve their Lord.

 

All coins you put in the offering box on Sunday will be designated for LWML mites, supporting missions all around the world. “Mite” gifts for LWML missions may also be placed in the large Mite Box in the MPR at any time. Just place your gift or small mite box in the large box and take a new box and thank you for your gifts. Hope to see you then. Wear your purple!

Thank you for all you have done to support our seminary students. You have graciously helped the students in the past, either by sending gifts, gift cards, quilts or dollars for the Christmas Marketplace. These gifts encourage the students and bring them joy, making the holidays memorable in many ways.

 

Once again our LWML is asking for your help in creating another special Marketplace for our seminary students in Fort Wayne. During the month of October through November 10th we will be collecting gift cards which will be shared with the students before they leave for their Christmas break in December.

 

It would be a blessing to receive:
1. Gift cards in increments of $10, $20 or $25, which may be used at merchants in the Fort Wayne area such as Walmart, Target or Meijer or restaurant chains such as Applebees, Cracker Barrel, Olive Garden, Red Robin, Subway and others.
2. Service station and gas cards from Shell, Marathon, BP or Speedway in increments of $25 and above.
3. Cash gifts to purchase dining hall lunch tickets. The lunch tickets allow students who live off campus to eat lunch on campus rather than needing to bring their meals from home.

 

Please place your gifts in the gold can on the counter. Thank you!

 There is only one more week until Lutheran Women’s Missionary League in Mission (LWML) Sunday at St. Peter.
