WEDNESDAY
NIGHT COMMUNITY SUPPERS -- ALL INVITED!!
Each Wednesday, the Hayward community gathers from 5:00 to 6:00 pm for supper --
all are invited! Originally intended as a way to help feed those in need, our
Wednesday night community suppers meet the needs of families on the go,
elders who desire company, and any and all who want to come. The suppers are
free of charge and are provided by volunteers from within the congregation. Come
join us for supper!! |

SOMETHING ABOUT EVANGELISM
It is a commitment at First
Lutheran Church to welcome the stranger in our midst and to reach
out in love and compassion with the Good News of Jesus Christ.
This happens primarily at our regular gatherings on Sunday mornings
for worship and Wednesday evenings for supper. However, it is understood
that as our congregation is dismissed at the end of worship, they
go as God's holy people to be the presence of Christ in the middle
of their everyday worlds--not simply to be nice and good people---but
so that others may know and desire the life that is ours in Jesus
Christ. If you would like to inquire about membership at First
Lutheran Church or have questions about the Christian faith, please
call the church office at 634-2141 or email us at worship@firstlutheranhayward.org |
