Sunday School Service Day Results
Our annual Sunday School service day was held on February 25. The kids assembled 100 healthy snack packs for Community Emergency Services and 50 personal care kits for People Serving People. Thank you for supporting our kids doing important work with your financial support.
We couldn’t have done this without you!

Summer Camp Sunday
Time to start thinking about summer camp!  Joel Legred, Executive Director of Luther Park in Danbury, WI will be coming to LOTI on Sunday, March 4 to share the fun summer plans for our youth Grades 1-12.

Tom Klein
We look forward to our annual visit from Tom Klein on March 18. Tom will give a demonstration of his uilleann bagpipe to the Sunday School children during Sunday School on this day!

Preparation with Pastor Haug will be held on Sunday, March 18 after worship and then on Thursday, March 29. Both gatherings are to be attended by parent and child. This is offered to 2nd graders and new families.
Celebration of First Communion will be on Easter, April 1.

On Wednesday during the Lenten season, we will be serving a soup and bread supper beginning at 5:45 p.m. in Fellowship Hall before the Holden Evening Prayer Service, which begins at 7:00. The first supper will be on February 21st.  We are looking for volunteers for each supper to…

  1. Set-up, serve and clean-up afterwards. Bread and soup  are provided.
  2. Bring a simple dessert like cookies or bars.
If you can help out with either of these two things, please contact Linda at linda.nelson@loti.org or 612-377-5095. 
A sign-up sheet will be in Fellowship Hall.
There will be a free-will offering for the soup supper. Suggested donation is $3 per person.
