Fellowship Saturday
Thank you to all who helped with and attended Fellowship Saturday on September 29th. It was a huge success. The next Fellowship Saturday is the Holtan Boys’ Birthday Bash Open House October 20th.
The Proclamation Ministry Team is looking for hosts for the November 13th Fellowship Saturday fun night. The host decides the theme and coordinates set up and clean up for the event. Contact Laura (lauralmccreery@gmail.com) if you are able to help!
The goal is to have a Fellowship Saturday every month (September – May).
Many Hands Make Light Work!
Check out the clip boards on the kiosk to help with various things around the church during the fourth quarter of 2018. Without your help All Saints would not be able to continue the various ministries!
CROP Hunger Walk
The 47th annual Quad City Area CROP Hunger Walk and Food Drive is this Sunday, October 7, 2018. The walk will be at the Freight House in Davenport (new location). Registration begins at 1:00 pm and the walk will be at 2:00 pm. See Anne Holtan is you would like to walk and/or donate.
Holtan Birthday Bash Open House
Saturday, October 20, 2018 from 11:00 am – 2:00 pm the Holtan’s will host a birthday bash open house to celebrate Scott (60), Ryan (18), and Tyler (17) in the gathering space at All Saints Lutheran Church.
We have never had a “kids birthday party” for the boys and wanted to do something special for one of our passions – our church food pantry! We will serve cake, food & tour the food pantry – maybe even stock a few shelves with the donations.
We are asking guests instead of gifts to bring food pantry donations of non-perishable items, paper products, or monetary donations – mark food pantry on the memo line of checks. Checks can be mailed directly to the church (5002 Jersey Ridge Road, Davenport, Iowa, 52807) to support the All Saints Food Pantry!
Please join us in celebrating the Holtan Boy’s Birthdays!
