THANK YOU - I would like to thank my church family for the Sunshine basket I received. It was greatly appreciated I miss my PA church family. Looking forward to seeing everyone when i come home in January.  Addison Dunkelberger.

​

LOOKING FOR A WAY TO GET INVOLVED? As part of Emmanuel Lutheran's congregational outreach, Sunshine baskets will be sent out to our members who are experiencing difficult challenges. Whether it is being shut-in, receiving difficult news, etc, a Sunshine Basket will be sent to let them know that their church family is thinking of them. In order for this to be successful, the items listed below are needed to put in the baskets. Snacks - individual packages of crackers, chips, candies, gum, mints, etc. Books - crossword, word find, inspirational, etc.  Small bottles of scented hand sanitizer, lotions, other items small enough for a basket and will convey our message. Monetary donations to purchase items.  Box for items will be placed on table to drop your donations in.  If you have any questions, any names of members we should put on our list, please reach out to Erica Hood or Cindy Mattern. As of now we have visited given 10 baskets.

               

CHRISTMAS  SHOWBOXES  are once again being filled this year. If you do not have time or would prefer to donate monetary gifts please see Cindy or Mary they are planning to shop for the remaining items needed. Packing of Shoeboxes will be on Wednesday evening, November 11 at 6:00pm. Any questions please feel free to call the church or send an email.

​

A HARVEST HOME CELEBRATION is a special time for us as a church family, to give thanks for God's abundant blessings. Your presence, fellowship, and participation make this occasion truly meaningful.
