2 Ways to Support CLS!
Casey’s: You can sign up for the Casey’s Rewards app. You may donate your rewards to Christ Lutheran school. For more information go to caseys.com/schools
Box Tops
Many are familiar with Box Tops for Education, those labels found on various grocery items. Now, you can download the “Box Tops for Education” app on your phone that can be scanned at the check-out. As long as you link your account to Christ Lutheran School, we will reap the benefits of everyday items you purchase normally. Our last check from General Mills was over $650! Please consider downloading the app to help CLS out!
Remember to call the church office if you are hospitalized or having surgery so Pastor can visit you. Your or a family memeber must contact us. Faith Regional is not able to contact each of the local churches about their members being hospitalized. Also, hearing about your hospitilization from others and not from you or family, makes it hard for Pastor to visit due to HIPPA restrictions.
Mailboxes for each member family of Mt. Olive are now in use. The mailboxes will have newsletters and other church related information placed into them. You will be able to access them any time you are at church. Newsletters will only be mailed out to those who are shut-ins. All other memebers will have newsletters and information put into their mailboxes.
One of the priviledges of being a Christian is to pray. You are welcome to participate in the Mt. Olive Prayer Chain. If you would like to participate, please contact Tim Kirschner and/or Rita Foxhoven, and/or the church office. Please remember, in order maintain HIPPA requirements, only immediate family members of the individual being prayed for will be permitted to initiate a prayer chain request.
Offerings will still be gathered in the back of the church as you enter or leave. They may be placed in the wooden Mt. Olive cart. We continue encouraging members to give to the Lord and the church through automatic bank draft, mailing in your give, or dropping off your offerings at the office.
There are from time to time special financial needs of members of our congregation, especially during this time of year. If you would be interested in being an "Angel" to these members who are in need, please designate a gift in your offering to the "The Angel Fund." Those who are in need are held in strict confidence. The Elders will facilitate the gifts of the "Angels" and those members in need of these blessings. Thank you for considering blessing those in our congregation who may be experiencing a difficulty.
Mt. Olive Members please remember that when you change your address, change your marital status, change phone numbers, or change anything about yourself you need to contact the church office. Please take the time to call the church office when the above things happen so we may have the correct information in your record.
