Triple Parish ProgramsThe three congregations operate many programs independently. They elect officers, staff Sunday School programs, maintain facilities and have special activities and ministries. There are some ministries which operate cooperatively. This page highlights some of those.
We will be packing up quilts for Lutheran World Relief in May and are faithfully working to get as many completed as possible. We meet every Tuesday at St. Paul at 1:00 pm. Everyone is welcome to help. There is a job for every skilled or unskilled level. Building Healthy Families BUILDING HEALTHY FAMILIES Jesus’ words, “I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly” serves as a reminder of the center of Lutheran Family Service’s adoption ministry. The goal is that all involved in the process – the newborn child, birth family, and adoptive family – each receive the abundant life our Lord promises. If you know of a family experiencing infertility who might be interested in considering adoption as a way to build their family, invite them to call your local LFS office.
