Local Habitat for Humanity Work Day Scheduled

On Saturday, February 11, St. Paul Lutheran volunteers will have an opportunity to work on a local Habitat for Humanity work site in White Bear Lake.   Start giving this mission project some prayer thought. Your help would be appreciated and it is a very worthwhile and inspiring mission project. 

The time commitment is from 8:30 a.m. until 4 p.m. We will need 10 – 13 volunteers at the job site during the day. The age requirement is 16 years and older. Car pooling will be arranged. 

If you have an interest in being a part of this mission project for the day, please watch for further information and watch for a sign-up sheet. If you have any question, you can contact Keith Wille, one of the Social Concerns committee members, or the church office.

SUPPORT OUR LOCAL FOOD SHELF!

 

FOOD SHELF SUNDAY IS THE
FIRST SUNDAY OF EACH MONTH

Our Valley Outreach Food Shelf serves more than 350 hungry families each month, giving away 34,000 pounds of food per month. 

The Valley Outreach Food Shelf is open on Mondays from 10 a.m. to Noon and 6 - 8 p.m.; Wednesdays from 10 a.m. - Noon; Thursdays from 6 - 8 p.m.; and Fridays from 10 a.m. - Noon.  It is located at 1911 Curve crest Boulevard West in Stillwater.  For more information about the Valley Outreach Food Shelf you can call 651-351-3169 or go to www.valleyoutreachmn.org  

We now have designated the first Sunday of each month a special day on which we ask everyone to bring something for the food shelf at Valley Outreach.  The need is great, and as followers of Jesus Christ, it is our privilege to make a difference in the lives of hungry people in the Valley. You can bring non-perishable food to church at any time.  But please remember to bring something extra on the first Sunday of each month. Monetary donations are also appreciated.

HELP COLLECT CAMPBELL’S PRODUCT LABELS FOR EDUCATION AND GENERAL MILLS BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION

For 30 years Campbell’s has been donating money to schools for equipment through their Campbell’s Labels for Education program. For the past 12 years, General Mills has also been donating money to schools for equipment through their Box Tops for Education program. We would like to ask your help in collecting these labels to help schools get needed equipment. There is a “label collection box” in the upstairs hallway in the same area as the “Wellness Library”. You can place your Campbell UPC’s and your Box Tops for Education in this box. There are hand-outs available on the counter by the box that list the products, both from Campbell’s and from General Mills, that have these education labels on them. These sheets are also available in the church office. We appreciate your support of this project, as do the schools that receive the help! Thank you!
