A BETTER PLACE TO LEARN GOD S GRACE 019 STEWARDSHIP APPEAL When or yoth program is strong, it feeds all other facets of chrch life as parents become more involved and as or children grow into confirmation stdents, fll-fledged members, and finally adlts who are active and engaged in ELC chrch life. The health and longevity of a chrch often lies in or children s faith growth and throgh the extension to their families. As chrch membership progressively ages, we at Evergreen Ltheran Chrch are always eager to welcome new families and encorage them to take on leadership roles within or congregation. When yong people, coples, or families visit, we want their entire chrch experience to be positive from the welcoming smiles they receive, the dynamic service they are a part of, to the engaging Snday School classes they attend. Jess was very clear in the gospel of Matthew when he said, Let the little children come to me. We want to reflect that message throgh interactions with or yoth and families and in the environment we provide for learning abot God and his promise. By fnding the ministry initiative A Better Space to Learn God s Grace, we can: Improve the Snday School space by removing broken/nsable frnitre and prchasing new tables and chairs. Create a warm and welcoming gathering space to enhance or children s faith and learning environment. Redesign the children s library to make it more inviting. Prchase new art and materials for Snday School classrooms and the common area. With fnding and committed ELC volnteers, we will create A Better Space to Learn God s Grace which will help grow or congregation by encoraging the children to come, learn and live Jess teachings. We look forward to having a space that reflects or enthsiasm for welcoming children and their families. Or goal for the 019 Appeal is $3,000 to initiate several ELC ministries. Some of this increase will be sed for the initiative A Better Place to Learn God s Grace. Please pray for a thoghtfl response to or LIVING IN GRACE GIVING WITH GRATITUDE Appeal on November 11th and yor own gratefl, Spiritled acclamation.
