We are glad you are worshipping with us this morning. If you are a visitor and have any questions or need assistance, feel free to ask one of the ushers or anyone seated near you. Please take a moment to fill in the Friendship Folder when it is passed down the row. Check any boxes that apply and return it to the center aisle. We look forward to getting to know you! We extend a special welcome to families with young children. We hope your worship experience at LCI will be meaningful for all members of your family. There are blue craft bags, filled with activities to keep kids engaged, available in the entry of the sanctuary. Also, children who have been receiving Communion at another church are welcome to do so at LCI. Please have them hold out their hands when it is time to be served. If you would like your children to start receiving Communion, contact Pastor Dan. Finally, nursery care is available for children under the age of 6. The nursery is located in the portable trailer in the parking lot. And a warm welcome to UCD students! We are happy you are worshipping with us today and hope you will make us your church home. Be sure to visit your Lutheran Episcopal Campus Ministry at UCD. It sponsors a number of events at The Belfry (216 A Street).

Our services are provided to the most vulnerable and hardest to serve - the chronically homeless, the disabled, low-income families, people with AIDS, the elderly, former foster youth and other at-risk populations. Supportive services include case management and living skills assistance, mental health and substance abuse recovery services, benefits and money management counseling, employment and educational support, and health access. Our goal is to maintain individuals and families in housing, help them to find employment and become self-sufficient. And we succeed! Many of our programs have a 100% housing retention rate after one year, which is one of our benchmarks. LSS changes lives every day! Facility Hosts Needed If you would like to be a part of the Sunday morning experience and greet members and friends as they come onto the property during construction, we can use your help!
