The quality of being kind and generous.

 

Luke 3:11 says Anyone who has two shirts should share with the one who has none, and anyone who has food should do the same.”

 

As the abundance of food donations from the holidays dwindle the need for food assistance in our communities continues. In response to that need children and adults from Chisago Lake Lutheran Church in Center City partnered with the local Family Pathways Food Shelf, Brink's Market in Chisago City, and Nick & Drew's Discount Foods in Lindstrom this past Saturday to conduct a local food drive. As you can see from the pictures here, the response from our communities was overwhelmingly generous resulting in hundreds of dollars in cash donations and nearly 1900 lbs of non-perishable food items that will greatly bless and assist our food insecure neighbors in need.

1,895 lbs!!

Thank you to all who gave their time, energy, food and donations!

Join Pastor Brian For Our New Adult Forum Series After Easter

 

Following an immersive journey through the history, geography, and accounts of Jesus through the Gospels, join Pastor Brian and others as we now explore what happened next and investigate the lives of the very first Christians. Beginning in Jerusalem and using the Book of Acts as our roadmap, we will travel the Mediterranean region to share the people, places and events that launched the Christian faith, including the missionary journeys of Paul and the apocalyptic visions and writings of John of Patmos found in the Book of Revelation. Join us in the Green Room most Sundays following worship this Spring and Summer!

Mark your calendars...
