News from your flock!

Thank You!

I would like to thank all the wonderful congregation members and the board members that came to our Spaghetti Dinner on February s". We had the best ever turn out, at least in my 10 years of working here. A special thank you to the men that worked all night in the kitchen/Raffle; Todd Trautmann, Dieter Antoni, Jeff Koblitz, and Jeff Fredrick.

They were absolutely wonderful. We had so many of our present preschool families and past families from 10 years ago attend this year. It's such a nice night to visit and celebrate God's preschool. God truly blessed our Dinner again this year. Thrivent was unable to match any funds. (In the past this has been between $600.00 and $1,000.00.) But, with prayer and by following God's will for His work through the preschool outreach we had a very successful dinner. Our total money raised at the dinner was $4,350.29. One our preschool families donated $1,000.00.  This family is new this year and they feel very blessed by Shepherd's Flock. When we follow God's plan and His will, He is pleased with us and blesses us. Thank you, God for Your love!

We will again share our blessings by giving to other children's programs.
