The Evening in Paris fundraiser dinner was a great success!  The food was delicious, the variety show was so much fun!  We thank the youth and their helpers, especially our chefs Greg & Jean & dessert baker Karen, and we thank all who attended and gave so generously!

 

 Be sure to pick up your copy of our Lenten Book And the Angels Were Silent by Max Lucado.  You can begin by just reading the first chapter.  The sermon series during Lent will be based on it.  Ash Wednesday is next Wednesday, February 22^nd.  The evening will begin with a special service at 5:30 p.m. for young children and their families.  At 6 p.m. everyone will gather for Soup Supper with Lenten Vespers following at 7 p.m.  You may donate $5 if you would like to cover the cost for your book.

Our next lunch date to serve at OUR Center is Sunday, March 4^th. The sign-up sheets for both food donations and volunteer service are available in the lobby.  We have committed to serve twice per year and have found real joy in serving those less fortunate in this way—plus the crew always has a lot of fun!  There are three shifts—one each for cooking, serving and clean-up.  Children under 16 may only serve in the clean-up crew as they can’t serve behind the counter. 

 

A Planning Meeting will be held to discuss revival of Stephen Ministry at COS on Tuesday, March 6 at 7 p.m.  Contact the church office at 303-776-1789 with any questions.   Who can/should attend? Any former or current Stephen Minister and anyone interested in learning what Stephen Ministry is all about.

 

 

 

 

The Alpine Kids Group are going ice skating on Saturday, February 25^th, from 3-5 p.m. Scholarships are available.  Meet at the Longmont Rink in Roosevelt Park at 3 p.m. & bring snacks if you'd like.  Questions may be directed to Michelle.

Seven focus groups from the community, churches, and local schools in northwest metro Denver met the last week of January to help determine what the new Lutheran high school in northwest Denver will look like. While general consensus of the vision was favorable, it appears there may not be sufficient interest at this time to merit the significant work of opening a new Lutheran high school.   In order for the Leadership Team to move forward with this venture a much larger response is required. We are offering one more opportunity for families to indicate an interest. Pending the results of this focus group meeting, CAHSA leadership will decide whether to continue pursuing this mission or not. That meeting will be held Saturday, February 25   9:30 – 11:00 a.m. at Peace Lutheran Church, 5675 Field St., Arvada.
