OPPORTUNITY TO HELP OUR YOUTH WITH A FUNDRAISING PROJECT!!
Our congregations’ youth will be volunteering to work Thelma’s drive thru meal on Wednesday, August 26th, to raise money towards their ELCA Youth Gathering trip to Minneapolis, MN in June 2021. Although we have several youth and their families volunteering their time, we could still use more volunteers. If you would be willing to help dish up food, bag meals, deliver food to vehicles, sell tickets, take tickets, direct traffic; we’d love to have you help! The volunteering time is from 2-7 pm, but even if you can help part of that time we’d appreciate it. If you are willing to volunteer that day, please contact Ann Aulwes 641-203-6577.
