A Phone Call of Thanks
Ray and I are passing along a message which was “Thank you”, and in so much
appreciation of the hamper and lovely gifts received from Zion Lutheran Church.
All the items were so much appreciated and really helped make their Christmas special.
This call was given from Kevin & Rechele Resler and their 4 children.
Lenten Services
This year, Lent begins later than usual, on Wednesday,March 9th (Ash Wednesday). This year, we will be sharing some of the services with Christ and Abundant Life – an extension of our partnership in youth ministry. However, most of the Wednesday evening services will be at St. Luke’s Zion. Stay tuned for more details as March approaches!

Lid Exchange
As was previously mentioned in our January newsletter we are asking once again to please check your glass lids at home:
At one of our potluck lunches in the first half of 2010, the glass lid to my crock pot was taken and someone else's lid was left behind. Unfortunately this lid doesn't fit my crock pot properly. Please check at home to see if you might have a lid that fits a 7-inch diameter and is slightly frosted on one half. Feel free to call me to arrange a trade-off (338-2729).
Thanks;
Evelyn
