Befriend a Missionary
Through the LWMS, our congregation has been assigned a home mission to pray for and encourage during the next two years. Our mission is Light of Life Lutheran Church in Greenwood, IN, who just launched a new outreach in a city 30 miles away. For now, the new group is meeting just once a month for bible study. You can find out more about Light of Life at facebook.com/LOLGreenwood. If you would like to send an encouraging card or email, please contact us for an address.

Volunteer at Dime & Dollar Thrift Store
Dime & Dollar Thrift Shop is an important source of income for Northland Lutheran High School. The people who volunteer their time and service to manage the store are truly heroes! However, our heroes are getting stretched thin; more volunteers are desperately needed to help out. Could you lend a hand? Call Jamie at 715-849-4168 and ask about being added to the schedule. Dime & Dollar has two locations: 211 Alexander St. in Wausau and 3268 Church St. in Stevens Point.

Lotsa Helping Hands
We have a care calendar to help support those who may be recuperating from an illness, surgery, loss of a loved one, or other situation in which they could use a helping hand. Volunteers can access the calendar from their home and sign up for the listed tasks as often or as infrequently as they wish according to their schedule and time constraints. This is a very flexible opportunity to serve and this invitation is open to everyone. If you would be willing to help, please join our community on lotsahelpinghands.com or contact Cynde Joosten at joosten@wctc.net.

Email Prayer Chain
- At worship we pray for people in the congregation who are ill or have had loved ones pass away. You have good intentions of praying for them throughout the week. However, by the time you get home you can’t remember who was mentioned. If that sounds familiar, then you may want to sign up for our email prayer list. We will send you updates once or twice a week, so you know who is in need of prayer. To be added to our list, just drop a note to us at churchoffice@stpaulwr.org. You can also sign up on our website. Look for the link on our Prayer Requests page.

Sunday Technology Help
- We need a few more people to help with technology on Sunday mornings. Ideally, we would have three people working at each service, one to operate the PowerPoint, one to work the soundboard, and one to video tape. Our ranks are especially thin at the 10:30 service. Training will be provided. If you can help, please contact Jeremy Buck at 715-712-0636 or jeremy.buck@msn.com.
