NURSERY

There is an Early Childhood Nursery available for children 5 and under located in the lower lever (below the Sanctuary).  We also have a changing table, rocker, crib and items to keep your little one occupied.  The Nursery is staffed during the Sunday service

 

SUNDAY WORSHIP SCHEDULE

In an effort to become more familiar with the new hymnal, the remaining Sundays before Lent, we will use setting four(which was the old setting two in the LBW). Then in Lent we will learn a new setting using the same liturgy for sundays and Wednesdays. After Easter, we will return with the Praise Team and Makeever Liturgy.

To help the children keep up their musical skills during the summer, think about playing a special music piece for offering or other place during worship. It can be a short simple piece or more complex. This is a great way to share your faith. Call Velma Wolff if you are interested (952) 472-4054.

DIAPERS, WIPES, & CRIBS,

The lullaby ministry is in need of used cribs, diapers and wipes. If you know of anyone who might have a crib to donate, please let them know we could use them. A monetary donation for diapers and wipes would be greatly appreciated.
 
 
 
LYNDALE CHORUS

Now is the time to give it a try. We’ll all start over together. You don’t have to know how to read music because EVERYONE can sing. We’re recreating the Lyndale Chorus and will practice twice a month on Sunday mornings at 9:15 and sing for worship that day. If you have children in Sunday School, you can rehearse at the same time. No age limits and no experience. Come and see and come and sing. We’ll gather for the first time on Sunday, September 19 at 9:15 in the sanctuary.

 SIMPLY GIVING

Simply Giving is an automated giving program from Thrivent Financial for Lutherans designed to help you conveniently and consistency contribute your stewardship plan to Lyndale Lutheran Church. It allows you to share your gifts through planned giving and activates your generosity into ongoing stewardship.

Because your gift is given consistently, you won’t need to play "catch-up" at year-end or worry about forgotten checkbooks or missed Sunday offerings. Please pick up a brochure at the worship center in the narthex. Please give Jana a call if you have any questions, or would like to participate in this program.
