CHIMES PROGRESS
Emanuel has received a grant and a donation toward the replacement of our electronic chimes. We plan to seek another grant, but it is important to show our support and make a donation toward this goal during the month of March. The total cost is expected to be at least $7500. All help is appreciated. A progress thermometer has been placed in the Fellowship Hall.
SYNOD ASSEMBLY
The SYNOD ASSEMBLY is set for June 6, 2026 at 9:30 a.m. and it will be held virtually. Let Pastor know if you are interested in attending. One man and one woman is needed to represent Emanuel.

Things needed are: Hygiene items; New men’s and women’s underwear, all sizes; New & used clothing for men & women, all sizes, especially men’s pants; Money - IRACS helps individuals transition into treatment facilities.
