News for the week of Sunday, November 8, 2009.

News:

Lithuanian Mission Project: At the October voters' meeting a motion
was made to set a goal of $5,500, to pay for Sunday school and choir
room interior walls at the mission project. The motion also
recommended that CHLC match dollar for dollar from the general
fund. This motion carried. To date we have collected $2,125.74. To
meet this goal we are having a mission drive on November 8 and 15.
We need to raise $625 to meet our goal. Please help by giving to this
worthy cause. Mark your gift as Mission-Lithuanian Project.

Don't miss the Annual Thanksgiving Dinner next Sunday, November 15.
Turkey, dressing, potatoes and drink will be furnished. The meal will be
hosted by the Macombers. College Hill congregation members are
asked to bring two dishes to share. Single members are asked to bring
one dish. College students will be our guests. See you there.

Building Healthy Families: Veterans Day (Wednesday, November 11)
presents a great opportunity to educate your children or
grandchildren about the history of this holiday and the sacrifice and
dedication of our U.S. veterans. In Iowa, there are over 276,000 living
veterans. This afternoon, help your child make a thank you note and
deliver it to a veteran in your community. If you don't know a veteran
personally, send a card or note to any veteran at the Iowa Veterans
Home, 1301 Summit Street, Marshalltown, IA, 50158. Lutheran Family
Service of Iowa 800-622-7285

Stewardship Thought: Hebrews 9:24-28: God's redeemed stewards
look forward to the second coming of Jesus to take us and all
believers to heaven. In the meantime we strive to fill each day by
making the best use of our time, talents and treasure for God's holy
purposes.

Outreach: Mark 12:38-44: The widow's offering, though it was
considered next to nothing by many, was precious in the sight of God
because it was given sacrificially with confidence that God would
provide for her needs. All that we do and give because we are the
children of God, though it may seem insignificant to people of this
world, is precious to God! Our witness to the good news of Jesus is
also precious to God!
