If your congregation is considering doing the “Listen God Is Calling” Appeal in the spring of 2016 plan to have your congregational leaders attend one of the scheduled trainings. The next trainings for congregational leaders will be as follows: (Note that the date for the Aberdeen training was wrong in the previous announcement.)
- Tuesday, December 1
Watertown, Lutheran Church of Our Redeemer – 7:00 pm - Monday, December 7
Aberdeen, Zion Lutheran – 7:00 pm - Tuesday, December 8
Sioux Falls, Our Savior’s Lutheran – 7:00 pm - Thursday, December 10
Rapid City, Calvary Lutheran – 7:00 pm
The total gifts and commitments to the appeal as of November 9, 2015 are $1,314,424.51. Thanks to all the visitors who have worked on the appeal and for their generous contributions. The Major Gifts chairs are continuing the process of forming committees to visit persons who are willing to give a gift of $5000 or more over a 3 to 5 year period. I ask that you continue to uplift the appeal in your prayers.
To God Be The Glory,
Pastor Bob Hansen, Appeal Director
