FEEDING THE HOMELESS MINISTRY –“Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you
something to drink? Then the King will reply, I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of
mine, you did it for me.” Matthew 25:37 & 40. The homeless shelter at St. John will open Nov 1st. Last spring, Our
Saviour members provided several meals for the residents and we would like to continue this ministry with a commitment
of providing one dinner each month. We will receive a schedule of available dates for dinners from the shelter in early
October. Meals (for approximately 45 people) need to be cooked outside the shelter and brought to the shelter ready to be
served by 5:30pm. We need people to help plan the menu and also to prepare and serve the meal. Donations of milk, fruit,
soup, paper products, or money to purchase items are always appreciated. Anyone wishing to work with us in this
ministry should contact Linda Callesen, 468-4819, Caroline Arndt 469-3140, or Gloria Morgan 468-6881.

News to those in desperate need around the world. This year the shoe boxes will be collected until the morning of

LIFE QUOTE – “Look at your hands. They are now Christ‟s hands of blessing in this world. Use them to be a blessing
because there are so many who are treated as insignificant, of no value, and are in danger of being trampled upon. Yes,
Christ‟s bit gands of blessing are right here in His church and in this world.” Rev. Dr. Glenn A. Nielsen, Concordia
Seminary, St. Louis, Missouri This “Life Quote” is from Lutherans for Life –www.lutheransforlife.org
