There is a lot happening in the world of Children’s Ministry at Lake of the Isles! The children have been busy preparing to sing in worship on St Martin’s Day, November 9. They also made the lanterns they will use on that day too! Did you see the Martin Luther Seals they made for Reformation Sunday? This month we will begin our preparation for the Christmas program (on Dec 14) – yes, Christmas will be here before we know it!

Here are some things to note on your calendar for the month of November:

Nov 9: Sunday School children sing in worship. This is also the completion of our winter warmth coat drive.

Nov 23: “Family (Advent)’ures- Finding new family faith rituals from Thanksgiving to Christmas” (See article for more details)

November 30: Advent calendars (with chocolate!) will be distributed to children

Looking ahead: Christmas program is Sunday, December 14. Final Rehearsal will be the morning of Saturday, December 13.

New opportunity for families on Sunday, November 23!

“Family Faith (Advent)’ures -Finding new family faith rituals from Thanksgiving to Christmas”

We hope you can join us after worship on November 23 for a new event geared towards families with children from toddler age to elementary age children. We will gather in the library after worship for a hands-on experience that educates families on ideas and rituals to take home focusing on the season from Thanksgiving through the season of Advent.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask Diane LaMere, Children’s Ministry Director or Pastor Haug.
