GOD'S WORK, OUR HANDS


Members of Gloria Dei held a worship service, led by Pastor Dan, complete with piano music by Becky Luett and harmonica music by Dennis Voss. Snacks and fellowship followed worship.

Members of Christus Church-Greenville, WI spent the morning cleaning up our grounds and washing windows as part of God’s Work, Our Hands Day! Thanks for making our community look great!

Old Glory Honor Flight

Linwood Community member Russ had the honor of participating in Mission 76 of the Old Glory Honor Flight this past September, a testament to his service. We couldn't be prouder of our friend, and in true Linwood spirit, we ensured that his homecoming was nothing short of spectacular! This heartfelt celebration not only highlights Russ's service but also embodies the strong sense of community that defines Linwood. Together, we cherish these shared moments that deepen our connections and foster lasting friendships, reinforcing our commitment to honoring each other’s journeys.

MATCHING FUND FOR WINDOWS

Linwood is pleased to be participating in the Year End Matching Program through the Community Foundation for the Fox Valley Region. We have received a $5,000 matching grant from anonymous donors. The funds are designated to complete window replacements for the final 10 apartments in our building. New windows help reduce our tenant energy cost and provide a more comfortable environment.

You can make your window donation by check and mail to our address above OR click here to use our PayPal donation link.
