Confirmation Update

Check with your child(ren) about all the sermon reports and tests that I handed back to them to see how they are doing.

Also...For the Wednesday night class there is a memory verse for next week's class: 1 Cor 10:16

The Thursday class is playing catch-up due to being out of school last Thursday.

Acolyte Schedule

I have completed the acolyte schedule which runs through May. Not everyone was scheduled for this time period, but that doesn't mean you won't get scheduled during the summer/fall. Remember, if you cannot make your time, you must find a replacement.

I will hand out a hard copy of the schedule and also have Mr. Miller post the schedule on this blog so you can refer to it as needed.

Please arrive at church no later than 10 minutes before the service so you can be directed by the Head Usher.

Thank YOU!

Pastor

My Apologies!

My apologies for the confusion regarding confirmation on January 12! I did not realize until 2:00 PM that the majority of our students did not have school today because of the weather. For that reason I made a post on the blog and sent out an E-Update cancelling confirmation.

It has been our policy if there is no school there are no evening activities. Of course, I never thought of the scenario that Immanuel would have school as well as Fort Zumwalt, but Wentzville, Warrrenton and Wright City would not.

Since we have several different school districts represented in our Wednesday class, I believe the simplest solution to any future confusion is to make the following our policy from this day forward: If Immanuel has school...we will have confirmation. If Immanuel does not have school we will not have confirmation.

I'm sorry some of you made the trek only to have to turn around and go home.

Might I add one more thing...Growing up in Minnesota it is dumbfounding to me that some schools were cancelled for 2 days because of somewhere around 3 inches of snow. If my school growing up would have done that we would have had consecutive snow days pretty much from January through March!

NO CONFIRMATION TONIGHT OR TOMORROW

NO CONFIRMATION TONIGHT, WED. JAN 12 OR TOMORROW AM, THURSDAY, JAN 13!
Due to several public schools not being in session today, we will not hold confirmation classes this evening. So as to keep both Wed. & Thurs. classes on the same schedule, there will also not be class for Immanuel grade school students on Thursday morning.

For future cases, if your school is cancelled you are not required to attend confirmation that evening.

Enjoy the evening off!
