Save the date and partner with Morningside Lutheran for a great cause! Morningside Lutheran's October Fest will take place on Sunday, October 10 following the 11:00am service. This year we will be raising funds for Hope Street of Siouxland, a local organization that is a sober living home which offers services to those suffering from homelessness, addictions, and mental illness. The Executive Director is Sara Johnson, a member of Morningside Lutheran Church. October Fest's main event will be a chili, cornbread, and cinnamon roll cook-off in the Gym and a Cornhole Tournament! We are looking for an unlimited number of cornhole teams for $20 a team, 15 people to cook their best chili in a large crock pot or roaster, 5 people to bake their best pan of cornbread, and 5 people to bake their best pan of cinnamon rolls. If you have a great recipe - we want you! Entry into the cook-off will be $10, and since spots are limited, sign up will take place in the church foyer beginning this Sunday. You can also call the church office if you'd like to participate. If you're not cooking, please join us that Sunday to taste all the options and vote for your favorites! We will have multiple opportunities for you to donate towards Hope Street, so please make sure to bring some cash or a check that day! We'll have activities available for the kiddos and are looking for a great fall day to come together and raise money towards an amazing organization in Siouxland. If you have any questions, please contact the church office. Stay tuned for more details in upcoming bulletins.
