Carpet Cleaning This Saturday!

CROP Hunger Walk Oct. 26
Baraboo’s annual CROP (Communities Responding to Overcome
Poverty) Hunger Walk takes place Sunday, Oct. 26. The 1- or 3-mile
walk begins at noon from the parking lot of First United
Congregational Church of Christ; registration starts at 11:30 a.m.
The CROP Hunger Walk is our interfaith education and fundraising
event dedicated to ending hunger locally and across the globe. Of the
money raised at the walk, 75 percent will go to Church World Service
to fight world hunger, and 25 percent will stay in the community to
fight local hunger issues. For more information, contact Teri Fichter
at 608-356-4293 or tfichter8@hotmail.com.
Adult Bible study opportunities
In addition to the Thursday lunchtime Bible study, Pastor Peter Heide
will be leading study time on Sunday mornings and Wednesday
evenings for all who are interested in learning more about the Bible
stories our Sunday School is studying. These classes will mirror the
Sunday School classes in order to gain awareness of what our young
people are learning and to be a help for them when they have
questions.
Beginning with the story of Joseph in October, we will gather in the
Augsburg Room between Sunday services and repeat the class the
following Wednesday from 6 p.m. to 6:45 p.m..
Thursday’s lunchtime Bible study will continue examining the
Augsburg Confession through the end of October, starting at
12:15 p.m. Bring your lunch and your appetite for lively discussion!
Gospel: October 19-Matthew 22:15-22; October 26-John 8:31-36.
