Honduras Supplies 2025 The Amazon Wishlist for supplies has been completely bought out, and we are ever so grateful to those who contributed. We are still taking monetary donations if you would like to contribute in that way. Please send any funds to OPC with a note that they are for Honduras Mission. You can also earmark donations more specifically to Honduras Scholarships, Building Fund, or Medical Clinics. Thanks so much for thinking of us.
Grace Lutheran Breakfast Easter Sunday, April 20 is the next volunteer event to serve the unsheltered at Grace Lutheran. We realize many in our congregation will have special plans for Easter. We need enough volunteers to fulfill our obligation to this important ministry. It’s a great opportunity to bring some Easter cheer to folks who are less fortunate. We meet at Grace Lutheran at 6:15 am and are usually done by 8:30 am. This gives you time to attend our 9:30 Easter service and have the rest of the day to enjoy time with your family. Please sign up at the Mission table on the patio if you can help this month.
Jigsaw Puzzles Please bring any 300- or 500-piece jigsaw puzzles you have collecting dust at home. Feel free to drop them off in the church office.
