Saved Through Faith
Martin Luther struggled with the church’s teaching that he earned his forgiveness of sin and justification before God through his works as a monk. Instead, he found a greater and deeper understanding that God’s grace is what justifies us. In celebration of and in response to the gift of grace, we are then called to live lives of love and perform acts of service.
40 Hours of Service
How are your volunteer hours stacking up so far this year? Kudos to those giving of your time in service to others. Look for more service event opportunities organized by the Stewardship Team.
Lutheran Pantry
One ongoing service opportunity is working at the Lutheran Pantry at First Lutheran on 31st and Jackson. People are needed especially on Mondays and Tuesdays from about 12:45 to 2:30 p.m. The need is great, as 70 to 100 people have been coming in one and one-half hours on Mondays, for example. (Some of the Lord of Love garden produce has gone to this pantry this summer, too.) If interested, please give Simone Weber a call at First Lutheran, 917-992-8574.

Endowment Fund Applications
The Endowment Committee is looking for special needs and missions that need funding. Applications will be taken until the stroke of midnight on December 1. The Endowment Committee helps fund special missions, projects, or one-time awards for good causes. To obtain funding for special missions, complete an application obtained from the church office or in the Narthex, and return it to the Endowment Committee.
Memorial Funds
The Memorial Committee is seeking suggestions and ideas for use of Memorial funds. During the past year, memorial funds were used to: help purchase bells and chimes for the Bell Choir, round tables in the Narthex, an Automated External Defibrilator (AED), and other items needed to support our ministries. If you have a great idea for use of Memorial funds, please contact a committee member.
Our 2012 community garden has truly born good fruit and vegetables all summer long. The early spring gave the produce a great start. Harvesting began in early July. Green beans, carrots, sweet corn, tomatoes, potatoes, onions, squash, and zuccini and more is going to local organizations, including Project Hope, First Lutheran Pantry, and Sienna Francis House. more
