Our church has joined the Riverside/Normal City Neighborhood. Therefore, we can help on Spring Clean-Up Day, Saturday, May 12 from 8am – Noon.
Meet at Grace Lutheran (610 N. Reserve) at 7:50 for donuts and coffee before heading out with the Muncie Sanitary garbage trucks to pick up trash throughout the neighborhood. Follow Riverside/Normal City on Facebook at facebook.com/rncmuncie or on Twitter @thenewnormal.

We had so much fun sewing the dignity pads for Ugandan women that we have scheduled another sewing bee at church on Saturday, May 19 from 10 to 3 with lunch included. This time we’re making mission quilts for Lutheran World Relief.  You can Google the instructions in advance, but basically we are going to make checkered tops from 48 squares (6 across, 8 up and down). Then we’ll put a sheet on the back and filler in the middle. You don’t even have to know how to sew.  We’ll also need cutters, pressers, pinners, and designers.  Put the date on your calendar and stay tuned for more information.

At some time, we believe warmer weather will come.  If anyone has winter items--coats, gloves, caps--that they would rather not store over the summer, we will be happy to accept them now for the community distribution in October.  A bin for your donations is located in the Narthex.  Thank you

A vote will be taken on accepting the new Vision Plan for HTLC.
 
The Ministry of Building and Grounds will discussing the repair of the church roof over the sanctuary.  A vote will be taken to proceed with this repair.
 
PLEASE PUT ON YOUR SCHEDULE AND PLAN TO ATTEND.

The daffodils are in bloom around the church.  Thanks to everyone who had a hand in planting the 500 bulbs back in the fall to commemorate the 500th anniversary of the Reformation.

The files above are what the Vision Team has been prayerfully working on these last few months.  They are now asking for your input.  Please read through the Vision Plan Draft and the One Page Summary.  Pray about what you have read and then answer the attached Feedback Form.  Feedback Forms are due into the church office by Sunday, February 11, 2018.

Thank you for your input!
