Announcements: December 22
DIVINE CALLS
On December 10, the voters of St. Paul's voted to extend calls to Miss Jennifer Shaw to teach 5th and 6th grades and Mrs. Sarah Burgess to teach 1st and 2nd grades. Miss Shaw is currently teaching at Bethlehem Lutheran in Menomonee Falls and Mrs. Burgess is currently teaching at Water of Life ECM in Las Vegas however she is moving to Mauston as her husband has taken a call to serve in the Adams congregation. Please keep these workers and their families in your prayers as they deliberate where they can best serve their Savior.
Call status and contact information for called workers can be found at stpaulhw.com/calls.

2025 OFFERING ENVELOPES
Offering envelopes for 2025 are ready and available in the church basement at Wonewoc and in the entry at Hillsboro. Please do not use these before January 1. We are making some changes to envelopes this year in an effort to reduce cost and waste. Those members who regularly use their envelopes will find a packet. If a member uses their envelopes only rarely during the year, we have not included a packet. We still can track your gifts if you pay by check, bank automatic transfer or otherwise have a name attached to your giving. Anyone who did not get a packet and wishes to receive one, should contact the office at 608-464-3212 and we will get you one asap. This is a transitional process, we appreciate your understanding as we try to streamline.
