MISSION/MINISTRY OF THE MONTH, SEPTEMBER:
St. Paul Freeman support groups:
The Funeral Committee members cook and serve for funerals of the congregation.
The Youth Group supports confirmed youth of the congregation and guests with devotions, events, volunteering, fund raisers, and of course fun activities and Christian fellowship. The largest event is attending the tri-annual national Lutheran Youth Gathering (LYG).
The Samaritan Group provides supportive care and fellowship to church members by actions such as making fleece prayer blankets for graduating seniors, providing gift cards to those in need, and hosting Coffee for a Cause fundraisers.
The Choice Dollars (Thrivent) committee designates uses for a fund set aside by St. Paul, from money received from Thrivent (formerly Aid Association for Lutherans), for various local and internal projects and charities.
The Scholarship Committee provides financial assistance for post-high school education of St. Paul seniors and college students. At the committee’s sole discretion, they use interest earned from various memorials over the years, including the Melcher, Dewald, and Hein funds.
