See our Social Ministry Page & Home Page for additional activities taking place at Resurrection Lutheran.

Human beings are social creatures. Our connection to others enables us to survive and thrive. Absent these social connections, we struggle. Yet, as we age, changes in our lives – such as retirement, caregiving responsibilities, loss of friends and neighbors, not being able to drive, or changes in some of our daily functioning – can increase the risk of loneliness and isolation.

Not being able to attend worship services or other church activities further adds to social isolation.

• I encourage you to remember friends or members of our congregation who are no longer able to attend but remain on our prayer list by sending a card, making a phone call, or scheduling a visit, if possible. The same challenge for anyone who may be absent for several Sundays, let them know they are missed.
• Donated greeting cards are available to anyone to send to church or family members, and friends. You will find them in a basket in the narthex. Help yourself.
• Believe in the importance of Christian fellowship and support.

Gift Cards

Council has moved $1,000 from the Reserve Fund into the Mission Fund to support the purchase of gift cards for those in need.  There has been a recent uptick in requests.  Cards from Schnuck’s, QT and Aldi will be purchased.  If you would like to purchase additional cards and/our donate towards any cards you are invited to do so.  We have been purchasing them in $20 increments.

Thanks, Church Council.
