November 14, 2014 Coming Soon…The Snowflake Faire On Saturday, December 6, St. Luke’s Guild will present the annual Snowflake Faire, a holiday bazaar with a large variety of items for sale, from new and handcrafted goods to resale items and homemade baked goods. We are asking for donations of gently used ”treasures” such as knick-knacks, Christmas décor, jewelry, purses, books, toys and hobby equipment, small working appliances, dishes and kitchenware, linens, and almost any kind of household goods. Please, no clothing or large items like furniture, bicycles or tv’s. Items may be brought to the tables in the northeast corner of the Parish Hall. Call Marilyn Otto at 777-9262 with any questions or suggestions about the Treasure Trove. We also need donations for our Pantry of your always tasty homemade goodies such as cookies, candy, jams and jellies, pickles, breads, etc. Please wrap and pre-price pantry items in small quantities and bring them to the Parish Hall on Friday, December 5, from 10 a.m.- 2 p.m. or on Saturday, December 6, before 9:30 a.m. Call Marty Gustafson at 819-5361 with any questions.

We sing in the Worship Theater of the Salvation Army KROC Center on Ramsey Road in Coeur d'Alene. The major work of this concert is Brahms' Requiem, one of the most beloved sacred works of all time. Unique from all other requiem masses, this work doesn't ask us to pray for the dead or warn about hell and damnation, but rather seeks to comfort the living and affirm that those who trust in the Lord, and who die in the Lord, are indeed the most blessed of all. We draw from our own talent for soloists – Jeanne McPherson, Soprano and Charles Etheridge, Baritone – with organ, piano and Chamber Orchestra accompaniment. 5:30 p.m. Men’s AA meeting Wed 19th 9:30 a.m. Fit & Fall Proof Class 3:00 p.m. Studies in the Bible 4:30 p.m. Bell Choir The Ensemble will perform works from its American Tribute concert and Artistic Director and Conductor Kent Kimball fills out the program with an eclectic mix of spirituals (Swing Low…, When the saints…), and Moses Hogan’s “I am his Child”. 7:00 p.m. Chancel Choir Thurs 20th 10:00 a.m. Painting with a friend 1:00 p.m. Blankets for Kids If you enjoy choral music well performed -- or you don't know whether you do or not but would like to find out -- try us out.

DOK is an Episcopal women’s group that dedicates itself to prayer and service. All women from St. Luke’s are invited to participate. Girl Scouts from Troop 3032 will join us again this year. We sew embellishments onto socks and give them to North Idaho Violence Prevention Center and St. Vincent de Paul North Idaho’s Transitional Housing (both are located in Coeur d’Alene). We are accepting sock donations, if you would like to contribute. Please place any donated socks in the DOK Book Box outside the Parish Hall. Questions?
