Announcements: January 7

CHRISTMAS UN-DECORATING
We would like to get the Christmas decorations down at the Wonewoc campus next Saturday, January 13.  It should only take an hour or so if enough people lend a hand.  The trees need to be packed away and the outside nativity taken down.  We are planning on beginning at 9:30am. If someone has time earlier in the week to take the nativity, please feel free to do so.  Thank you.

DIVINE CALL
Pastor Snyder has received a divine call to serve at St. John Lutheran Church of Lewiston, MN. A congregational meeting to discuss this will most likely be set after the first of the year.  In the meantime, you are encouraged to reach out to him with any thoughts or comments by email, appointment or in person.  Please keep him, his family and the two congregations in your prayers as he deliberates this call.

2024 OFFERING ENVELOPES
If you have not picked up your 2024 offering envelopes you can find them by the back table in Wonewoc or the narthex at Hillsboro. Ushers can assist you if you need help. In a cost-saving effort, we have not included envelope packets for anyone who has not used them in the last year.  If you would like envelopes, you cannot find your envelopes, or if the address on the label is not correct, please let the church office know (464-3212).

CLEANERS SCHEDULE

The cleaning schedule for the Wonewoc campus has been updated for the first 3 months of this year. Families are assigned a week to clean the church. The cleaning usually takes about 2 hours once a week. There are copies of the schedule on the table in back of the sanctuary. There is also a master calendar hanging on the bulletin board if anyone would like to sign up for specific weeks. If you unable to clean during your assigned week, please switch with another family or call the office and we will help find someone else.  The office can also answer any questions that you might have regarding supplies and duties.  Thank you for your help!

TRIVIA NIGHT – FEBRUARY 10

Panther Parents is sponsoring a Trivia Night on February 10, 2024 at the Wonewoc Legion Hall.  If you enjoy trivia, this might be the event for you.  There is a registration fee of $120 per team that includes a chili meal. You can have up to 8 players on a team. Check the poster in the narthex for more info and click here to register or contact Rachel at rwobschall@gmail.com or 608-415-0287.

WORSHIP SURVEY

A survey has been put together by the pastors and elders looking for feedback on various aspects of our worship practices. Now that we are almost two years into our use of the new hymnal, we want to gather information on how the introduction process has gone, as well as other aspects of our worship services. Paper copies are available at church, or you can fill out the survey online by going to stpaulhw.com/worshipsurvey.
