CONNECT Student Ministries would like to
thank everyone who contributed to this year’s Oktoberfest! It was a huge success! When all was said and done, we profited over
$2200.00 towards the Mission Trip.
Thrivent has agreed to match $1600.00 of that amount, bringing us to a
total of over $3800.00!!! Our goal in
fundraising for the entire year is about $7500.00 which would enable us to cut
the cost in half for our student participants.
We will be doing another fundraiser in the Spring
to raise the rest of these funds. Thank
you so much for your support and generous giving!!

Fall Fun Fest
The annual
Fall Fun Fest is coming! This year’s
Fall Fun Fest is on Saturday, October 22nd from
If there
are parents who have not yet volunteered to help, we could use all the
assistance we can get to make this day a success!
Concrete Progress
On Monday,
the concrete will be poured in the front of building C (and a patch repaired in
front of the church narthex). Then
additional plants will get planted next to the trees – and it’s complete!
Again,
thanks to Randy Hall for all of his work (and to Sara and the family for giving
Randy time away from his family to allow him to volunteer to complete this
project). It looks great already even
without the concrete!
SCRIP Volunteer Needed
In order to
continue participating in the SCRIP program, as a non-profit organization, we
need to have a volunteer coordinate the program. This job would entail being available to sell
SCRIP to parents and replenish the SCRIP supplies. The bookkeeping process would continue to be
handled by the accounting office (Carla Gomes).
The selling time could be arranged to accommodate your schedule (or you
could arrange to have other volunteers sell SCRIP at various times throughout
the week). If this is an area you might
be willing to serve, please contact Joe Ryno or Dennis Dirks at the OSLS
office.
CHAPEL: Come! Grow with Us.
We invite
members of Our Savior Lutheran to join the school on Thursday mornings at
