Faith Adventure! Children ages 3 through 5th grade are invited to go with Miss Brynn for a special activity during the sermon; children return during the hymn of the day that follows the sermon.

Fellowship Night is this Saturday, October 10, at 6:00pm in the concourse. Food and fellowship for all.

Charting the Future: Discerning the Past is a congregation-wide conversation about the values of our congregation and how we see those expressed in our rich history at OSLC. Please join us on October 11 at 10:15am in the Fellowship Hall.

Raise the Roof was a great success! There were many in attendance, fabulous reviews, and $2735 was raised for the Capital Campaign. The Council thanks Melynda Tracey, Ryan Faber, and the OSLC Bell Choir.

Help fund necessary repairs to our roof and HVAC system. We have raised about $12,500 of our $100,000 goal. Designate your gift to “Capital Campaign.”

Quilt Auction — The women’s workshop is offering a beautiful quilt at a silent auction to raise money for our roof repairs. You may view the quilt and place your bids in the Concourse until Monday, October 19.

Wednesday evening Youth activities are in full swing, and it’s not too late to join in. Lighthouse Children’s Ministry is for preK-5th every Wednesday from 6-7pm. Branches is for 9th-12th every Wednesday, 7-8pm.

Operation Shoebox — October’s theme is Games & Toys. Visit our website or check the lists on the table in the concourse.
