November Happenings

Hy-Vee Reusable Bag Program
All Saints Lutheran Church Food Pantry & Clothing Closet has been selected by local Hy-Vee store leadership as the benefiting non-profit in the Reusable Bag Program!

For the month of November, All Saints Lutheran Church Food Pantry & Clothing Closet will receive a $1 donation from each purchase of the $2.50 reusable red “My Heart” Bag at the Hy-Vee store located at 1823 East Kimberly Road, Davenport IA.

Worship Information for November 22 – Christ the King Sunday
The worship service will be broadcast via Facebook Live at 10:00 am. Due to the surge in Covid-19 cases in the area, the council suspended in-person worship for the time being.

During this time of online worship if you would like a worship document that would be similar to the projection, please let the office know and it will be e-mailed to you.

While we are worshiping remotely once again, please send your offering to church (5002 Jersey Ridge Road, Davenport, IA 52807). We still need to keep on top of all the bills. Thank you for your continued support.

Please remember to practice the 3W’s (wear a mask, watch your spacing, and wash/sanitize your hands often) when you are out and about to help slow the spread of the coronavirus.

Bible Study
There will be a Bible Study on Wednesdays via Zoom at 7:00 pm. Learn about the Biblical lessons for the coming Sunday. The November 18th Meeting ID 767 4250 6571 and password 8f8myR.

There will not be Bible study during the week of Thanksgiving.

Stewardship Drive
Stewardship information was handed out Sunday, November 8 if you were at worship. If you didn’t attend in-person worship, the packet was sent to you via the USPS. If you didn’t receive the information, please contact the church office (office@allsaintsdavenport.org or 563.359.9516) as soon as possible.

The committee asks that even though we are worshiping remotely that you keep All Saints Lutheran Church in the forefront of your heart. Please take time to prayerfully reflect on the information in your stewardship packet. As it says in 2nd Corinthians 9:6-7, “Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” You can return your completed pledge card using the enclosed envelope, please do so by November 22nd.  

Volunteers needed Friday, Nov. 20
The All Saints Food Pantry was awarded a grant from the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship for the purchase of two commercial grade refrigerators. Before we have them installed, we are going to remove the old carpet in the two adjoining rooms and have new commercial grade carpet installed. 

We will need help this Friday, November 20th at 9:00 am to put everything back so we are ready for the food pantry on Saturday. If you have any questions, please call or text Bonnie at 563-370-7076. 

Thanksgiving Worship
Thanksgiving Worship Service will take place Tuesday, November 24 at 7:00 pm via Facebook Live. Due to the surge in Covid-19 cases in the area we will not have worship in-person.

Church Decorating
Volunteers are needed on Saturday, November 28 from 4:00 – 6:00 pm to decorate the church for the seasons of Advent and Christmas. Please remember to practice the 3W’s (wear a mask, watch your spacing, and wash/sanitize your hands often).

Food Pantry & Clothing Closet
Did you know that the All Saints Lutheran Church Food Pantry & Clothing Closet is one of the busiest in the Quad Cities? It takes numerous people to volunteer to make this ministry happen. People are needed to not only volunteer when the food pantry & clothing closet are open on Saturdays, but various days throughout the week. If you can help sometime throughout the week talk to Bonnie, Anne, or Sheryn to coordinate.

Every Friday volunteers are needed to help unload food from RiverBend Food Bank from 9:30 – 10:30 am at All Saints.

For the week of Thanksgiving, the load will be picked up on Wednesday, November 25th. We have a great crew that picks up the loads from RiverBend on a weekly basis!

If you are interested in working in our food pantry or clothing closet on Saturdays, please sign up for a shift or two at https://www.signupgenius.com/go/70a0e44aca62ea6ff2-food

Thank you for helping people in need in our community!
