I cannot believe we are at Memorial Day 2025! Time flies when you are having fun, I guess. I believe in my heart that our church is on the right path. Financially we are holding our own. Our pastor is settling in very comfortably with us. I love his sermons, and he has got the Lutheran Liturgy down well also. I do not want to say too much good about him as he will get a big head or a bigger head! The Trustees and Pastor are still working on some changes for the Maggiano Scholarship Fund to make the requirements for a scholarship more in line for where we are today as a church. We are also working on term limits for all members of any committee within the church. And we are suggesting some changes in the Nominating Committee. These will go to the Council at our next meeting in June. Then in the fall we will present them to the congregation for approval. These are more changes to get aligned with where we are today as a church. The Property Committee had three large projects for this year: Fix the driveways as we come in and out on Route 46 and replace the two handicap spaces out front which are larger than what was there. This project is done. Removing the two remaining pine trees and grinding the five stumps to ground level back by the patio. This is not completed yet. Finally, having the parking lot seal coated and lined. This is in the process of being scheduled. The flowers have been planted and are growing, plus the colors are good this year. We will be finishing the project with mulch. Thank you again for making this possible through your donations to the Outside Flower Fund. Well, that’s all for this month and I will continue to keep you informed of other things as they come up. Please remember to love everyone as God loves us!
Church Information…Please remember that you can obtain church information from the monthly Lamplighter Newsletter, the Constant Contact emails you receive, on the church website (www.lllc.org), on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/Living-Lord-Lutheran-Church-493806727349110/), and postings on the church bulletin board. Church Council Meeting minutes are posted on the bulletin board and sent out via Constant Contact. We would like to see a better “open rate” when we send information to you via Constant Contact so that we know you are being informed of the activities that are occurring at the church. If you have any other suggestions on how best to reach out to our parishioners, please see a Council member.
