LEADERSHIP MEETING

There will be a meeting for all members serving on any church leadership committee on Saturday, January 23 from 9:00 a.m. until noon. Please mark your calendar for this date to attend this meeting.

LAKE AREA MINISTRIES

As another year ends, on behalf of Lake Area Ministries, we would like to thank you for your wonderful, tireless, and constant support. The people in our community who are in need are so blessed to have churches, businesses, and individuals who give so generously, not only from their own pocketbooks but also from their hearts. It has been a tough year economically for a lot of people and LAM has surpassed all previous records. As of the end of November 2009, we have served 4,396 families. This was an increase of 628 families over the same period in 2008. We were also able to give each family a grocery gift card to help with the purchase of a Thanksgiving dinner. In December we also were able to share some stocking stuffer items because of the tremendous support we received. Thanks to each of you who give to help those in need. May God bless you during this New Year.
