ANNOUNCEMENTS

February Calling Team:  Please call Marcia J or Jennifer B with any special concerns or requests.

February Mission of the Month: Lansing Christian Services aims to help churches meet people’s needs with the love of Jesus Christ. The Christian Services Help Center (394-5411) is the place where the needs of people in our community can be heard. Dedicated church volunteers answer the help line phones, listen compassionately to each caller, verify information, and then connect them with the appropriate church or community resource.

New Member's Class Begins Today:  There will be 2 classes offered, one before the service starting at 8:30 am, in the Burcham Small Group Room #14, located towards the back of the gym.  The second class will be offered immediately following the service at 11:30 am, in the choir room # 12, located just to the right as you come down the stairs from the sanctuary. If you are new to Immanuel or if you have attended for a while but have not become a member, come and learn more about what excites us, how we operate, and how you fit into the big picture!

Pick Up Your Super Bowl Subs Today in the FLC:   Payment is due at this time. Thank you to all who ordered.  The proceeds from this sale will go towards our 2020 mission trips.

Youth Group Super Bowl Party:  Young Adults, Sr. High, and Jr. High Youth, meet here tonight at 6:00 p.m. to cheer on your favorite team for the Super Bowl! The party will end at half time so please plan your ride accordingly.  If you have any questions, contact Joey South.

CONNECT: This Wednesday we will be serving burgers, baked mac and cheese, fruit salad, and dessert for dinner at 5:30 pm.  The Jr. High youth will meet at 6:15 pm. The CONNECT Kids will meet at 6:15 pm as well, and the Adult Bible Study will be at 6:30 pm in the choir room.

Cupid Carnival:  In celebration of our love for Jesus, we will be having a Cupid Carnival on Wednesday, February 12.  Bring the family that evening and join us for pizza at 5:30 pm, with games to follow!
