If you have questions, contact the church office—we’re happy to help ensure everyone can join us for worship.

Parking Update


As we look forward to returning to two Sunday services beginning November 30, we appreciate your patience with the current parking challenges.


To help ease congestion until then, please consider these options:


  • Attend Saturday worship at 5:00 PM, which currently has plenty of room.


  • Use overflow parking across Plaza Mayor at the Church Office, or—if you’re able to walk a bit farther—at the Chuck Reider Baseball Field located around the corner at the end of Plaza Mayor.


  • We’ve also reached out to Village on the Isle, requesting that their staff park in another lot on Sunday mornings to help make space for our parking needs.


Thank you for your flexibility and for helping make worship accessible and welcoming for everyone!

WE NEED YOUR HELP!



The Emmanuel Christmas Float Elves have been working hard to be sure

the Emmanuel Float represents the church in the best possible way. 


The theme this year is

“From the Manger to Emmanuel: 65 Years of God’s Grace”.

 

All was going well – until – the trailer we had lined up to rent was sold. 

At this late date it is proving difficult to find another trailer to rent. 


Here is what we need: 

a 12’ to 16’ trailer, enclosed

with sides, all around that are 24” high

ideally with a taller side at the back of the trailer (maybe 4’ or 5’)


We will need to have this trailer for

Wednesday, November 26, 2025,

through end of day,

Saturday, November 29, 2025.

 

If you have or can get a trailer for us to borrow or rent,

e-mail the office, info@emmanuel-elca.org

or call at 941-488-4942 and leave a message


We need to find something by Sunday, November 9, 2025.

 

Best regards,

The Emmanuel Christmas Float Committee

I DIDN’T KNOW THAT!


I’m sure you have all experienced that brief but excruciating ice cream headache! You think I would learn, but I don’t, and I still love ice cream. Apparently, that cold deliciousness triggers...

I cannot adequately express in words how grateful I am for the prayers, cards, texts and emails I have received from my Emmanuel family.

My recovery is slower than I would like but with God's help I will get there. Hope to see you all soon.
