The purpose of the MLC Ladies' Auxiliary is fourfold:
- To promote greater interest in Martin Luther College
- To promote Christian fellowship among women of WELS and those in fellowship with WELS
- To give financial support to MLC by supplying funds for needed projects
- To support MLC and its students through prayer
The annual Auxiliary Day will be held on Saturday, October 7. Registration begins at 8:30 am in the Luther Student Center with the meeting starting at 9:30 am.
Morning treats will be available, and lunch can be purchased. Food donations for the MLC Food Shelf will be collected at the registration site. If any groups or individuals are interested in donating quilts or blankets for the Auxiliary Bingo Night, those can be dropped off as well.
Presentations by staff and students will provide attendees with a greater understanding and appreciation of MLC's ministry. One highlight will be a presentation about the new changes on campus and plans for future campus enhancements.
Attendees will also be treated to a sneak peek of Forum's Hello, Dolly!
The closing devotion will begin at 12:15 pm and end with lunch in the MLC cafeteria—a fine way to end a fun morning!
Ample time for fellowship is a part of the schedule at registration, lunch, and worship.
The assembly will prioritize the funding projects submitted by MLC faculty and staff and then will have an opportunity to support those projects. Last year the Auxiliary funded about $20,000 in projects and scholarships.
Finally, all connected to the Auxiliary, finding this their highest honor, will pray for the students, staff, and faculty in both opening and closing worship.
If you are in the area, join us for a day of support for our WELS College of Ministry!
