Christmas Families 2018

​And the king will answer them, `Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.' (Matthew 25:40)

"Christmas Families" is Immanuel's ministry to share a spirit-lifting Christmas with families and children who struggle in life. Child Protective Services provides us with a list of families in need of assistance, who are "adopted" by Immanuel parishioners and families. Our goal is to bring the good news of Christ's coming and God's love in a very tangible form – a toy to grow with, clothing to keep warm in – to another family, transforming a bleak Christmas into the light of Christ present.

Christmas Families Announcements 

​For three decades the bicycle ministry, under the leadership of Bill Frye, has brought a sense of freedom, self-confidence, and healthy exercise to more than 1,000 needy children. We need help with continuing the Bill Frye Bicycle Ministry.

• Good used bikes, especially child and youth sizes are needed, preferably in rideable condition after cleanup and new tires, if needed. Bring to church on Sunday or during the week or call Dagobert Soergel.
• Helpers to fix the bikes. We urgently need helpers to fix up the bikes, any skill level. Can be done any time by arrangement, including evening and weekends
