Reading of Names on All Saints Day

Every year on All Saints day, we read a list of names of the beloved people in our lives, who have passed away. If you would like a name or names read aloud during our upcoming All Saints Day service, on a list that we call the necrology, please send those names to Jon+ at jfeuss@stjla.org by this Saturday. Thank you!


Don't Forget to Fall Back!

Clocks turn back one hour to standard time this Sunday AM. Don't forget to reset your clocks before bed on Saturday evening!

Thanksgiving at our Soup Kitchen

It's so hard to believe, but Thanksgiving is right around the corner! And as many of you know, our Great Food program always puts on a full-on banquet the day after Thanksgiving complete with turkey, sides, pies, and so much more.
​
If you are interested in supporting our Thanksgiving feast, there are two ways you can help out. The first way would be to bring in a side dish (green bean casserole, sweet potatoes, or cranberry sauce) or a pie to the church before Thanksgiving (November 19 - November 22). Please email Margaret Ecker with what you plan to bring (mecker@stjla.org).

The second way you can support us is by making a donation to our Great Food program. This will help offset the cost of this special feast for our friends in need.
