YOU’RE MAKING A DIFFERENCE
Thank you to everyone who supported San
Pablo Lutheran Church in Aurora this Christmas.
A total of $8,207.84 was collected through the
Giving Tree. An additional matching gift of
$2,000 was donated by the Immanuel Lutheran
Church and School Foundation. This represents
approximately three months of mortgage inter-
est for San Pablo. Your donations, along with
the matching gift, will have a significant posi-
tive impact on San Pablo and its ministries.
BOX TOPS UPDATE
Immanuel Lutheran School received a check
for $525.90 from Box Tops for Education. Thank
you to everyone who clipped Box Tops icons
on everyday products and brought them to
Immanuel to benefit our school. Special thanks
to Stephanie and Ed Knappe, who have been
coordinating this program for more than a
decade!
