Fall Fest (this time for sure)

Reminder that Fall Fest will be this Sunday, Oct. 14th from 4-8pm at the Kerns’ acreage (12500 S. 25th ST. Roca, NE) We will plan to have it then, unless it is raining (in which case we’d postpone to the next week).

Note: We’ll only be postponing it if there is ACTUAL RAIN FALLING, not just a forecast for rain.

Hope to see everyone there!

Building Purchase Update

Dear Zion,

I wanted to give you an update on our purchase of the Church Building at 5511 South 27th street. We were scheduled to close sometime last week, but the title search revealed a contractor’s lien against Southwood Lutheran. This should be cleared this week and we will close as soon as that happens.

Southwood Lutheran Church met as a congregation and overwhelmingly approved our purchase of their building. MiddleCross (the tenants at SLC) also voted unanimously to forfeit their first option to purchase the property. All parties are ready to close.

I know that both churches are praying for us, and again we are blessed by God and by his people in other congregations. Be encouraged, and continue to pray for these congregations and for the spreading of the Gospel throughout Lincoln and beyond.

In Christ,
Dennis Mann

Fall Fest—Rain and Parking

Fall Fest this Sunday, October 7th at the Kerns’ acreage from 4:00 to 8:00.  In the event of rain, we will postpone for one week until October 14th.  Parking this year will be more difficult, since the nearby field we have used for parking in previous years has not been havested.  So if you can, share a ride with someone to reduce the number of cars.

5511 Vote

The Southwood Lutheran congregational vote approved the proposed sale of the 5511 property to Zion.  Closing is delayed, however, since an outstanding construction lien encumbers the transaction.  We expect the lien will be resolved quickly.

AWANA news

Awana parents, this week’s issue of the Blue News is online.  Ask your clubber, “What did the fat green frog order at the McDonald’s drive-up window?”
