Parish Life
"I give thanks for your partnership in the gospel..."
The Parish Life Committee brings a sense of community to our congregation. It promotes Christian growth by fostering personal relationships and nurturing devotional life within the congregational family. We work to provide the members of our parish with a system of support to help them through life's joys and challenges.
The Parish Life Committee relies on volunteer support to:
- Provide meals and other assistance to parishioners who are ill, shut-in, or bereaved
- Visit people when they are in the hospital
- Visit families with new babies, and provide them with meals or any other assistance they might need
- Provide transportation for the elderly
- Support family and friends at the time of a funeral
- Take Communion to the homebound
- Provide the congregation with an email and/or telephone prayer chain
- Support the Parish Nurse Program
- Provide support for our congregation's students in college
The Parishioners at Luther Memorial are concerned about staying healthy and having great energy! A new program of " fun, fitness and fellowship" is being developed to improve mental and physical health without getting "bored" with just exercising.. There is presently a survey form in the church Narthex that can be filled out. This program will empathize fitness but in doing this we will also have " fun and fellowship ". Please fill free to take part in helping us to become healthier.Once the forms are completed, a program will be developed for all to enjoy.Blessings of Health and Happiness,Jo Burroughs, RNLMLC Parish Nurse
