“Ruth” 10.06.19 – Pastor Lien
REFORMATION SUNDAY/DEDICATION DAY
Mark Your Calendar!
SUN, OCTOBER 27 @ 9:15AM
We will have our regular service on Saturday, October 26th at 4:00pm and we will combine the two Sunday services into ONE service at 9:15am. Immediately after that 9:15am worship service, we are inviting the whole congregation to move directly into our Fellowship Hall for some light snacks, coffee and great conversation.Ready to Run the Bases?
Discipleship Classes – Sunday, October 20, 2019 @ 1:30 pm
Many of you know that Victory has embraced the idea of running the bases as a way to understand our discipleship and growth in Christ. We’ve adapted material from Saddleback Community Church and now offer four discipleship courses:
Please note that 201 & 401 will also meet for Part 2 on Monday, October 21 at 9:30am
Interested? Sign up here by clicking the class above, then join us at 1:30pm on Sunday, October 20th in the Fellowship Hall. All classes will gather for a time of refreshment, worship and orientation, then be dismissed to specific classes around the building. We prefer than people take the classes in order, but if you can’t manage that, invite a friend and take whichever class interests you most.I-HELP PROGRAM — THANK YOU FOR DONATIONS
Victory I-HELP has received incredibly generous donations these past two months. Thank you to everyone who has contributed, so grateful to have your support and prayers. The ladies will want for nothing! We are no longer able to accept donations of sheets, blanket and towels due to a lack of appropriate storage. Please take these items directly to the Thrift Shop at the SE corner of Main and Greenfield, behind Wendys. They will unload your vehicle and give you a donation receipt. When ready to transition to permanent housing, our I-HELP ladies can receive a voucher for this store and obtain needed household supplies. Thank you! If you would like to become involved with this local ministry, contact Bev Locke at blocke1206@gmail.com.MUSIC MINISTRY
Handbell Choir rehearsals begin October 10, 5:00pm. Choir meets on Thursdays at 6:30pm. If you are interested in participating in bells, choir or have another musical talent you are interested in sharing, please contact Kristin Prouty: kprouty@victorylutheran.com.
Due to the renovation, our concert season will begin in November. Keep an eye out for details in the November newsletter or bulletin announcements.CHAPEL TIME CANDY COLLECTION
While we are not doing the Trunk or Treat this year because of some property challenges at our Crismon Campus, we are continuing to do Chapel Time every Friday for 140 children now. Huge thanks to our new volunteers! Candy is being used as a treat (it works better than kale), so if you’d like to donate any candy for Chapel, please drop off in the front office.
Renovation Update
Here are a few highlights of what has happened so far:
- Everything has been removed from the sanctuary except the organ (which is draped to protect it from dust).
- The large Mosaic was successfully moved a few feet back on Friday June 7th (just a few feet further west). It turned out to be heavier than expected – over 2,000 lbs!
- We have received all of our necessary construction permits. Our timeline for completion has only changed slightly. We are planning to be back in the sanctuary by the middle of September.
- Our asbestos report found a few hundred square feet of flooring that was contaminated, so we had to bring in an asbestos abatement company to properly treat and remove the problematic tile and carpet areas.
- Our summer transition into the Fellowship Hall for our worship services has worked out almost as well as we had hoped. We had a couple of weeks where we were not satisfied with the sound system performance, but as of this writing, we think most of major sound system issues have been addressed.
UPDATE – JULY 9, 2019
