package.
We would like to ask those that donate food to donate basic food items such as
peanut butter, jelly, cereal, pasta, sauce, fruits, vegetables, etc., as
opposed to cake mixes, cookies. jello and such supplemental items. Also if
anyone can budget a monthly donation to help us, it would be appreciated. As
always we thank you for your support.
Sincerely,

speaking to God and about God while enriching our own prayer life. Read beforehand: Psalm 22, Hosea 1.2-9,

making * share
implications for interactions *
explore strategies for untangling communication problems *
identify implications for Bible study, preaching, prayer, and spiritual journey.

are three different ways to register: One. Download and mail check
with the registration form found at: http://LearningattheCrossroads.googlepages.com Two. E-mail LearningattheCrossroads@yahoo.com,
giving your full name, postal address, telephone number, and congregational
membership, and indicate the #s and titles of the workshops you plan to
attend (numbers appear before the dates listed above). We’ll send back an immediate response to
confirm your registration and ask you to write a check to ‘Central Crossroads
Conference’ for $20 for each chosen workshop and mail it to: Three, No home e-mail? Have your
church send an e-mail on your behalf with your name, your telephone number,
and a request to be called at home. Need to cancel a registration? If
more than 5 people from a congregation attend, the sixth and after pay only
$10 each for food. This is equally accomplished, and with least confusion,
when a congregation sends in one $50 check and has all congregational
participants (including the first 5) pay only $10 each for one’s meals. Deacon
candidates pay only $10 for required workshops. Candidates will be notified directly regarding
such workshops. Habitat has just started to build the Lutheran Home and is looking
for volunteers for Wednesday through Saturday each week. If interested,
