Thanksgiving

Dear Mount Olivet Members and Friends,

We have so much for which to be grateful at all times, but are especially mindful of this as we approach Thanksgiving, a day set aside to give thanks for our many blessings. This November, I invite you to experience the joy of gratitude by joining us for worship at our Thanksgiving Eve service on Wednesday, November 25, at 6pm at both campuses. This worship service includes some of our wonderful high school students sharing their reflections on thankfulness, a message from the pastoral staff, and both the Cathedral and Sanctuary Choirs.

I also invite you to share your gifts at one, or all, of our service opportunities by:

• Donating an unwrapped gift to our Christmas For All Donation Drive. Your donations fill a Christmas store at the West Campus where clients of our community partner, Love INC, can come do their holiday shopping.
• Making a gift using the enclosed Thanksgiving offering envelope, online here, or by contacting the finance office at 612.767.2255. This year, all Thanksgiving gifts will be shared between the international relief efforts of Lutheran World Relief, and the project of churches around the country working to reduce the crushing weight of medical debt for families through the faith-based organization, Thee Alliance.

Thank you for your partnership in ministry at Mount Olivet Lutheran Church, a family of faith that knows we are blessed to be a blessing!
