"Now all glory to God, who is able, through His mighty power at work
within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think."

How Has the Forward in Faith Campaign Affected Me?
By Jonathan Kromrey
First, I have a confession to make. Because of my background as a software project manager, many people believe I'm an engineer. Well, while I can talk the talk, I can't walk the walk, as they say. The truth is I'm a writer, not an engineer. For many years I've struggled with the fear of how my writing would be received and criticized, so I haven't put words to paper very often.
We are moving forward in the renovation process. We are still waiting for the final approval of our plans and receiving the permits. After the permits are received we will start taking contractor bids.
You Are Invited
to an "Open House"
Gloria Dei's Offices have been moved to its temporary location in the Early Learning Center. Everyone who is interested in a quick peek at this office space are welcome to come by Sunday November 29th.
Volunteers Needed
Each week brings us closer to the start of the renovation. We are looking for people to start preparing Luther Hall. Wayne Hokanson has prioritized a list of tasks which need to be accomplished. Please contact Wayne Hokanson if you are interested in volunteering.
Gloria Dei Give Away

Bibles, hymnals, and other treasures will be found at the Gloria Dei Give Away table starting this Sunday November 23rd. All items are FREE to any interested persons. New items will appear each week .
"Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work." (2 Corinthians 9:6-8 NIV)
