• Groceries for Families

  The Evangelism/Social Ministry Committee collects groceries for a family once a month.  If anyone in the congregation would like to contribute to this, please mark your contribution envelope with "Groceries for Family" and place it in the offering plate.  Thank you!
• Improvement Fundraising

  St. Philip's Lutheran Men are asking other organizations within St. Philip's to plan a fundraising endeavor to bolster the Improvement Fund.  There is an ongoing need for this fund; just recently, the HVAC unit in the Fellowship Hall was replaced at a cost of approximately $6,000.  As has been brought to our attention previously, our property is aging and must be maintained.  

  Please give this a high priority and consider a fundraiser.  If you choose to do so, please coordiante with the Lutheran Men by contacting Don Kunkle.  
• Mothers Day and Fathers Day Donations

  To honor Mothers and Fathers, we will collect monetary donations in honor or memory of these important figures in our lives to be given to the Current Fund for the Church.  

  This year, we will have recognition of these gifts in our Mother's Day and Father's Day bulletins.  

  To give for Mother's Day, please have your honararium/memorial in by Sunday, May 5th.  

  To give for Father's Day, please have your honorarium/memorial in by Sunday, June 9th.
