Shine Jesus light.jpg

Several children ages 3 through 5 had a great time recently at LCOP’s Vacation Bible School. The theme, “Shine Jesus’ Light! in the Universe" provided the children with a colorful, fun-filled 4 days of learning.  Our 6 volunteers assisted with singing, indoor and outdoor games, bible story adventures, crafts and experiments, and of course, snacks.

 

You may have seen the Universe corner of our Fellowship Hall at the end of May, and the sidewalk chalk artwork they did the last day. The children blasted off each day from the “Universe” to enjoy all the “stations” set up to have a good time and to learn stories from the bible.

 

After a couple years off, it was exciting to have VBS again, and we hope to grow this program as the community becomes more aware of availability.

 

Thank you for donating supplies, and a special THANKS to Karen Bracalento for organizing and leading VBS. Also thank you’s to Ethan Howe and Jean Minkin from LCOP, and to Karen’s friends who together made the week a success. See you next year!

Community Service & Outreach

We strive to follow the example of humble service in Jesus Christ. From 5th Sunday loose change offerings that go to support local community service organizations and ministries to our annual Give Away day where anyone can come and get what they need, quilts that provide warmth and shelter for many around the world, collecting and packing lunches for our community neighbors in need, backpacks and school supplies for our community children in need, collections for Lutheran World Relief, World Hunger and disasters in other countries, we are constantly working to spread God's Love to meet the ever-increasing needs of people near and far.  Check out our outreach and social ministry programs and get involved!   Generosity is a hallmark of our congregational community.
