On Saturday, September 20, join us at 4:00 pm for a Holy Communion Introduction and/or Refresher for all ages and families. We will look at Holy Communion in general and Holy Communion at Immanuel. We will bake Communion Bread for Sunday’s worship as part of the activities. The afternoon will end with a light supper. Please RSVP so we can have enough food and bread making supplies.

This meeting will take place on Sunday, September 21 at 10:45 am in the Youth Room and is for the Confirmation students that will be confirmed on October 26 along with their parents.

There is now a box near the Baldwin Avenue entrance to collect brand new winter gear for local children. Project Keep Kids Warm has been around for years providing winter clothing for needy kids on the west end of Marquette County and was started by local churches to fill a need.

GriefShare at Immanuel: A Ministry of Hope and Healing

Grieving the loss of a loved one is one of life’s most difficult journeys. It can leave us feeling isolated, overwhelmed, or unsure of how to move forward. At Immanuel Lutheran Church, we believe no one should have to walk through grief alone. That’s why we are offering GriefShare, a 13-week support group and video-based program designed to provide comfort, encouragement, and hope to those who are grieving. Whether your loss is recent or from years past, GriefShare offers a safe space to process, heal, and find community with others who understand.

The program begins on Tuesday, August 27, and will meet weekly at Immanuel for 13 sessions. Each meeting includes a video seminar featuring grief recovery experts and personal stories, followed by group discussion and reflection. Participants will also receive a helpful workbook to guide them through each week’s topic.

GriefShare is open to anyone in the community, members and non-members alike, so please feel free to invite a friend or neighbor who may benefit. There is no cost to attend.
