IT’S VACATION TIME FOR CHURCH SECRETARY – Michelle will be on vacation Monday,

September 24-Friday, September 28. Due to this time out of the office, items for the September 30

announcement sheet need to be received no later than 8am on Thursday, Sept 20. Also, there will be no

SCRIP sales or SCRIP pickups that week. Orders can be dropped off to be filled the following week.

TAKE THE WORN-OUT WOMAN QUIZ – Do you run out of energy well before the day is done?

Do you worry so much, it distracts you from your goals? You may be a worn-out woman. Come to a

study led by a self-proclaimed worn-out woman. Get more information today (Sept 16) in the gym or

come to the parlor on September 19 (6-6:30pm), Sept. 20 (8:30-9am) or Sept. 26 (6-6:30pm).

A PAIR AND A SPARE CAMPAIGN – Our Saviour once again is serving as a collection site for new

socks, underwear, long underwear and bras for children and adults. The collection box is near the 2nd

floor coatroom just past the elevator. Please help us collect items which are rarely donated but are very

much needed by those less fortunate. Donations of all sizes will be collected from September 1-26.

SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS – Sunday School begins next week. Stop at the Board of Education

table at the Fall Rally today and volunteer. Team teaching allows you to teach every other week. Student

registration forms will also be available. Background check forms must be completed by all adult Sunday

School volunteers at least once every three years (forms are in the gym at the Fall Rally).

CONFIRMATION – Is your child ‘Confirmation age’? Our Saviour begins Confirmation classes when

students enter the 7th grade. If you did not receive a new student package, stop at the Board of Education

table at the Fall Rally today. Forms for all levels will be there and completed forms can be dropped off.

Classes begin Wednesday, September 19 for all levels (Level I - 7th grade, Level II and Level III).

CAN YOU ADOPT-A-BILL? – If you can, please ‘Adopt a Bill’. Select an invoice and envelope from

the board, make your check payable to OSLC, put it and the invoice in the envelope and place in the

offering plate or drop off at the office. In just five weeks, you have donated $3,307.45 (this amount is

NOT included in the Unified Budget information provided in the bulletin every week).

FALL RALLY TODAY – Please join us for a potluck lunch after the service today where you can also

learn about the many ways to use your time and talents at Our Saviour. There will be no 10:30am Bible

class or 10:45am service. We’ll enjoy great food, fellowship and fun!

ARE YOU INSURED? AVAILABLE TODAY ONLY – The youth will be conducting a Fla-toilet-

mingo (similar to the familiar pink flamingo) fundraiser during the month of October. A commode will

be placed on the lawns of church members who must pay a $10 fee to have it removed (no limit to the

number of times your lawn may be selected). The next recipient is determined by those who pay the fine.

To prevent this from happening to you…buy commode insurance in the gym today and your address will

be placed on an exemption list showing that you have already generously donated to our cause. The

money raised will benefit youth accounts for the 2013 National Youth Gathering and other upcoming

youth events. Two policies will be available: Standard - $20 includes your address placement on the

exemption list; and Premium - $25 exempts your address and ADDS the privilege to select an address

where the commode is placed. Please consider the youth and your front lawn (and what your neighbors

may think) when attending this year's Fall Rally. Don’t delay…it’s only available today!

SUNDAY BIBLE STUDY – Please watch the Announcement Sheet, weekly calendar information and

The Voice regarding the Sunday morning adult Bible study group. Days will vary between ‘The Truth

Project’, Adult Confirmation classes and ‘regular’ Bible study. September 23 begins the Adult

Confirmation classes for prospective new members in the 9:15am time slot; RSVPs appreciated.

DON’T THROW IT AWAY! – We are collecting used cell phones, empty pill bottles, aluminum cans,

beads, and mfr’s coupons as well as batting and knitting/sewing materials, Box Tops for Education,

Labels for Education, Capri Sun pouches, specially marked milk caps, and Coke codes. We also collect

non-perishable food for Manna for Life (please no bread, potatoes, etc.). For info, call 468-4065.

SUNDAY SCRIP – Every purchase is a small donation. Buy Sunday mornings at the Welcome Center

or the church office (from 8am-11:45am and 1pm-4:15pm Monday thru Friday). Groceries? Gas? Going

out to eat? Gift giving? Taking a trip? Give to church without changing your budget. To learn more, stop

by the Welcome Center today or come to the office during regular business hours. If you have a child at

Green Bay Trinity, OSL Preschool or in the youth group, ask about our ‘tuition reimbursement’ program.

LAMBEAU FIELD AND PACKER GAMES – Our Saviour needs volunteers (18 or older) to work

this season. Volunteers must attend a training session before working (see office hallway bulletin board

for the September schedule). Please contact Neil Burmeister at 866-9088 or call the church office (468-

4065) for more info. Our booth is indoors (Section 427 club seats); we need 21 people per game. Sign-up

sheets for all games are at the Welcome Center; sign up now for any future home game.

PASS IT ON! – As you clean out the kids’ closets for the change of seasons, or decide to empty all the

extra toys, books, etc. from their rooms, please consider donating them to Our Saviour. Although our

“Kids Only Sale” doesn’t take place until May, donations are always accepted. Please drop donations off

Monday-Friday, 8:00am – 4:00pm, or in the Nursery on Sunday mornings. We accept almost anything

baby and kid related, as well as maternity clothing (please NO expired car seats or drop-side cribs). If

you have questions, please contact Maggie Hinz at 920-265-6432 or laughterandblessings@gmail.com.

LAST CHANCE FOR CPH BIBLE SALE – Need a new Bible? Looking for the perfect gift? A CPH

order will be placed on Friday, September 20. The order form can be found posted outside the office. If

we place an order for 10 or more, shipping will be free; if not, shipping costs will be divided equally

between those who order. For questions, call Michelle at (920) 468-4065.

SCORE! - GB Trinity was able to purchase two scoreboards for the gym at Our Saviour at a very

reduced price. Some funds were borrowed from the athletic account and we will be holding fundraisers

to pay for them as well as the cost to install them. Donations can be sent to Green Bay Trinity

Scoreboard Fund, 120 S. Henry Street, Green Bay, WI 54302.

DON’T COOK BEFORE THE GAME! – As a way to pay for our new scoreboards, Green Bay Trinity

is hosting a "Night out at Pizza Ranch" on September 24 from 4-8 pm. Our Volleyball girls will be

bussing tables that night and Pizza Ranch is donating 10% of the night's profits back to us, plus

Northeast Thrivent is providing matching funds (up to $1,450). Pizza Ranch is a Christian organization,

and it's a great place to eat!!! Come out for some pizza (so you don't have to cook) and then you can head

home to watch the Packer game (without having to do dishes)! Hope to see YOU there!

IT’S BINGO TIME…VOLUNTEER! – Age Well Centre for Life Enrichment (an assisted living

facility formerly known as Creekside) is looking for a Bingo caller on Tuesdays at 6pm and Saturdays at

11am. If you are interested in helping out, please call Age Well at (920) 468-9174.

LIVE, LAUGH, AND LOVE LADIES RETREAT OCT 5-7 – Refuel in God's Word and the

company of other awesome women at this "just for ladies" retreat at Camp Luther. The schedule is

designed to draw you closer to God and to each other through a variety of individual, large group and

small group activities. There will also be trips to Cranberry Fest in Eagle River, a Ladies night out, plus

walking, biking or canoeing amid the beautiful fall colors! Go to www.campluther.com for details.
