President Corrine opened the meeting by welcoming everyone and gave an opening prayer.  She turned the program over to the Adah Circle.  Megan Ekern favored us with a piano solo.  Faye Heiden gave devotions from the book “Uncommon Love” by former NFL coach Tony Dungy.  Donna Boyum introduced Lael Lemire, the program coordinator at Hope Harbor, a residential setting for at risk girls in Winona.  Our group has supported this program both financially and with quilt donations for the residents.  The Hope Harbor program has served 100 girls in Marshall and Winona, MN.  There are currently 4 girls in Winona and 2 girls have completed the 12-15-month program.  She told of a 13-year-old girl who had been in foster care since she was 4. She was a victim of abuse and was adopted by family members.  She came to Hope Harbor and gave her life to Jesus 1 month after coming.  In Sept. Hope Harbor will be opening a home in Parker, SD for boys, this being the first home for boys.  Barb Marsh closed the program with a violin solo accompanied by Portia Lee.

President Corrine called the business meeting to order.  The secretary’s report was read and approved.  The treasurer’s report was read and approved showing a balance on hand of $2747.72.

Old Business:  Linda Paulson gave the quilting report.  Several quilts have been made and donated to several individuals and events.  Lynne Munter reported on the cookbook project.  Currently there have been 500 recipes received.  The book should be ready by the bazaar.

New Business:  A reminder that the fall salad luncheon is Sept.18.  Each circle is to provide 6 salads, 1 bread and 1 large pan of bars.  Lynne gave a library update noting that there is a large collection of books for check-out.  She also reminded the group that a fall Bible Study will begin for 12 weeks beginning in Sept.  The study will be on the Minor Prophets.  Thank you cards were read.

Announcements:  Birthdays, anniversaries, and prayer requests were noted.  The next meeting will be on Sept. 4 at 1:30pm.  Hannah Circle has the program, Miriam Circle has the lunch and Adah Circle has Sunday morning coffee.  There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.  Corrine closed with prayer.  The Lord’s Prayer and the table prayer were said.  Lunch was served by Hannah Circle.

Donna Boyum, Secretary

This fall, we will be studying the Minor Prophets.  These often forgotten or neglected books are deeply relevant for us.  They include exhortations, promises and challenges to live a life that glorifies God.  We will study on Tuesdays at 1:00 p.m. beginning Tuesday Sept. 10th going through the first week of December.  The study books are now available in the church office for $11. Please have the first chapter completed by the first class on Tuesday, Sept. 10th.

Lynne Munter will be leading the class.

Cookbook

Thank you for submitting your recipes! The committee is now busy putting the cookbook together. 

Any questions, please call Linda Hovland at 507.864.2101.

Rushford Lutheran Church offers a Monday night worship service at 5:30 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall.  If you are unable to join us Sunday morning due to travel or work, please join us on Monday nights.  The service has the same hymn selections and sermon as Sunday morning, but held in the more informal setting of the fellowship hall.

The Sunday morning Bible study is welcoming and relaxed, no experts or know-it-alls; just friends discussing how faith fits into daily life.  Feel free to join us in the multipurpose room after worship.
