Next week at Adult Forum:  Meet for "A Day in the Life" - connecting Sunday to Monday.

Start collecting your items to donate to the 2009 Peace Lutheran Rummage Sale!  The sale will be held the last week of April into May.  Donations will be received in late April.

Community Breakfast: Remember how good those waffles and sausage were at last year's IOCP benefit? This year the same treat will be held on Sun., February 15, from 8am to 1pm. Purchase your tickets in advance at a table in the narthex for $6.00 (they're $7. at the door).  Your participation will enable Interfaith Outreach and Community Partners to continue providing food, housing and other services to area families who are in need.  The breakfast is held at the Wayzata American Legion, 949 E Wayzata Blvd.

Pancake Breakfast Fundraiser for Families Moving Forward will be held on Saturday, February 21, from 8am to 10am.  Proceeds raised will go directly to help families in the emergency shelter pay damage deposits on their new apartments, so they can move into their homes. Breakfast includes pancakes, eggs, sausage, orange juice and coffee - all for only $5 per person!  Invite your friends and join the volunteers of Families Moving Forward at the Applebee's Neighborhood Grill located at 14400 Weaver Lake Road in Maple Grove.
