Special Upcoming Events... 

September 12th will be an exciting day for all of our members!  It is Rally Sunday, the kick off to the Sunday School season.  During our worship service we will be installing the 6 teachers for 2011.  We will also be meeting Krista Zimmerman, council recommended Pastoral Candidate for United Lutheran Church. 

Krista will be  joining us for worship which will be followed by a Pot luck luncheon in fellowship hall.  Please bring your favorite dish to pass; or try a new one from our ULC Cookbook!  Christian Ed will be providing the cake! At this time everyone will be given an opportunity to visit with Krista and the parents a chance to register their children for Sunday School before departing at 1:00 to the Rock River to ride the Forest City Queen.  There is a sign-up sheet for the ride in fellowship hall, cost is $4 a person.

We are thankful for the joint efforts of Christian Ed and Council, this is a great opportunity to get to know Krista before the Special Congregation meeting on September 19th at which time the congregation will be given the opportunity to vote on extending a Call to Krista Zimmerman. If you have questions please contact the church office or see any member of the church council.  We hope to see you there!

ULC Soup Kitchen Outreach Project
Everyday too many people in the Rockford area go without a single meal. On Saturday,  September 18, 2010 we are going to do a small part in helping those in need get a warm meal for the day.  In order to do this, we are asking for your help.   

We will be serving a pasta dinner with sides and are asking for the following donations..
Can Corn, Spaghetti Sauce, Fruit Cocktail, Disposable, Rectangular Compartment Plates, and Cookies for Dessert   

Please sign up in the fellowship hall and indicate which way you would like to help.  We are also looking for volunteers to come help cook, serve, & clean-up.  The soup kitchen is located at the Jubilee Center ~ Emmanuel Episcopal Church ~ 412 North Church Street, Rockford.  Please have all cookies to United Lutheran Church NO LATER THAN Friday, September 17, 2010 at 1:00 p.m.  If you are coming to the Jubilee Center to help, we will start setting up and cooking at 10:00 a.m.  We are usually done serving and cleaning up by 1:30 p.m.  If you can only be there for a few hours, you are still welcome to come and help.  If you have any questions please see Nettie Brinker.

Serving 125+ people is hard work, but after helping those in need you will feel so rewarded!

                                     
            Christ is Lord over sin and death.  Let us heartily join together to celebrate and rejoice!
