August-September Chapel Offering
Chapel offerings for the month of August and September are going to HART-Helping Area Response Teams. We have collected $441.52! The new HART of Berrien County is a ministry from Trinity Lutheran Church of Berrien Springs. It’s a new service to Berrien County, to send their converted ambulance out to fire and other emergency calls in the region. The vehicle goes to fires and other first responder emergencies to provide support and relief to those first responders and emergency workers.

October Chapel - Thanksgiving Baskets Once again, our school families have the opportunity of helping other families in our community. Through students' October chapel offering envelopes, money is collected for the perishable goods that must be bought just before Community Thanksgiving Baskets are delivered. Thus far, we have collected $70.30! Then, in November, classrooms help fill the baskets with staples, canned and boxed goods that can be kept on shelves longer. Please donate what you can every week, and by the end of October, we can be ready to purchase ham, butter, and potatoes; and closer to Thanksgiving the eggs, milk, rolls and pies. Imagine the feast that will be ours to share through your Chapel offering envelopes. Canned goods are on sale now at local stores.
