Floyd Thomas Prints:  Faye Aamodt has graciously offered Floyd Thomas nature prints for free will donation opportunity.  These prints have been a part of Lake Mills history for many years appearing on calendars and the cover of the WCTA telephone books.  If you would like a print, or several, please take what you would like!   Donations will be designated for the tuckpointing project.  Prints will be available in the Narthex before worship and after worship on Sundays and in the office during the week (through February).  We thank Faye for her generous gift!

Supplies: There are face masks, disinfecting wipes and hand sanitizer on the high top table in the Narthex. Please leave them on the table; they must be accessible to anyone who may want to use them.  Thank you! 
-Shannon Bruhns, Council President & The Board of Property & Management 


Summer Camps: Reminder to sign up your children for summer camps before the early bird deadlines! Check out the camp websites for more information.  This is such a great opportunity for our youth!  In the past, the Enduring Gift Committee has helped to pay the remaining balances, after parents make the down payment.  After you have registered your child and paid the deposit, forward your receipt email from camp to the Salem office.

Collections:​ We collect used stamps, pop tabs, eyeglasses and receipts from David’s Marketplace.  The WELCA group receives 1 tenth of 1% of all receipts collected.  This can really add up and help.  The baskets for these items have been moved to the Narthex. They ask that receipts do not get rolled up.
