Contributions Nail Table This is not strictly an Ash Wednesday idea. On Good Friday we do a Service of Nails where each participant is invited to place a nail in a cross. It would be powerful for that nail to be one they have carried since Ash Wednesday. A reminder of our sin, driven into the cross. Sunday School Music Resources This is a great list for Sunday School Music Directors with a list of books and CD's to help with your church's Sunday School Music program. This list was compiled originally for the How to be a Sunday School Music Teacher/Leader Workshop by the Southwestern Minnesota Synod Resource Service Center. Agreement for Alignment of Two Churches This is a parish agreement the Joint councils have prepared for an alignment between the two churches. Memorials Policy A general memorial fund has been established for the handling of all memorial gifts not specifically identified to an end purpose. Suggestions for memorial expenditures from the general memorial fund may be brought through the senior pastor, to any regularly scheduled meeting of the Executive Committee. Building And Equipment Use Policy Gloria Dei Lutheran Church welcomes the use of its facilities by members, the larger church, and non-profit public service groups whose objectives are deemed by the program staff to be fitting with those of the congregation. No member or non-member business events are eligible. Non-member personal events (anniversaries, etc.) may be approved individually by the program staff. Building and Property Usage Church organizations have priority for use of the building. All meeting times, however, should be recorded in the church office to avoid conflicts with other church organizations or with those parties which have leased space from the church office. Church Building Use Policy There are some basic rules when using the Church building, such as making sure to return the room to their original arrangement and do not create work for the janitor. Council Policy For Use Of Church Facility The congregation of First Lutheran Church welcomes the use of its facilities by its members and others, such as nonprofit and charitable organizations and community groups, When making plans to use the facilities please make arrangements through the church office well in advance of the proposed date. Written proposal from the requesting organization may be required at the discretion of the Church Council at its Executive Committee. Building Use Policy The PDF file contains multiple examples of building usage policies. For members using the church for showers, birthdays, or anniversaries; nor will there be any charge for non-profit groups such as Boy Scouts or community groups. Members using the church should leave it as it is found. Custodian will do the vacuuming. |
