Fundraising for Minot, ND Flood Recovery

On July 12, the fundraising Italian Dinner was held in the Fellowship Hall.  Almost 80 people attended and enjoyed a delicious spaghetti dinner prepared by Lou and Christine.  Homemade spumoni ice cream for dessert made in the kitchen by Marissa and Lynn.  The music played and the conversation was lively at all the tables.  T-shirts were sold and additional donations were made by others who weren't able to attend.  A great evening and fundraising event -- the goal of raising $5,000 was reached!  Thanks to all you helped make this happen!

The Servant Team is now in the final weeks of preparation for their trip.  On July 27, the team will be attending training at Home Depot on how to hang drywall.  Then each member will be leaving for their trip to Minot, North Dakota, meeting at the hotel on Saturday, August 10.  Ray and Ann will be flying in; Roger will be driving his motorcycle; Lynn and Steve will be driving their own car and Jane, Fred, Noah & Rick will be coming from Colorado in their car. 

On August 11, the team will attend Christ Lutheran Church's worship service.  On Monday, August 12, everyone will meet in the lobby and head to Hope Village - Lutheran Disaster Response's office for their first assignment.
Look for more posts in August as the team assembles and does God's work with their hands.
