ELC Women Blanket Sunday Thankoffering ELC Home Page |
 The first Sunday in May is Blanket Sunday at Emmanuel, a long-standing tradition. We know the story of how blankets and quilts are sent by Lutheran World Relief all around the world -- how they can provide warmth on a cold night, shelter from the sun on a hot day -- how they can become a bed, a room divider, a backpack to carry belongings, and at times, even a home. The story doesn't change -- the need just gets greater, not only in our area but especially in the rest of the world. Our special offering on Blanket Sunday will help Lutheran World Relief provide blankets for people who suffer from war or natural disasters all around the world. Please make your check out to "Emmanuel Lutheran Church Women" with a notation for "Blankets". Thank you for responding to this need. “'Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me.'”
