The Annual Seniors appreciation service at Faith was celebrated October 4, 2009.  Credit for taking charge and organizing this event in recent years is Patti Carter.  Patti's hard work and attention to every detail is very much appreciated! Here's Patti making sure everyone has what they need at the dinner.  

Below are some of the seniors Patti works so hard to honor.

As long as we are honoring our older members here, this is as good a place as any to mention Terry Olstad, probably the oldest active member of the "Faithful Knotters. She is pictured here with daughter Karen, at left, and son, John Eric.

As usual, where 2 or more Lutherans are gathered.......EATING is involved:

Who could resist including a photo of THAT couple there

A HANDBELL CHOIR?

WHERE..........................HERE?

Even in large cities churches that sport handbell choirs are few and far between. The Stevens Point/Plover metro area, which population exceeds 35,000, can claim only two churches that have handbell choirs. They are St. Paul's United Methodist and St. Paul Lutheran Church so it's quite a bit deal for a smallish country church to muster enough dedicated folks to staff a handbell choir much less do a good job of it. The proof is at the links below!

The first link is for a 1:08 minute 2.89 meg Windows WMV video which shows the choir doing a portion of Silent Night (edited to 1:08 for size). The second link is for the entire performance with audio only, runs for 2:38 and is only 643KB in size and the third link is for their rendition of, appropriately, Carol of the Bells which runs for 2:11 and is 536KB in size.
