Renovare...in the community

Ellen Collins and Jeanie DeWolf bring God's love to a house touched by the flood.

Following a recent study on transforming discipleship, our Renovaré small groups took to the streets with other people from our church family to help heal the destruction of the floods of 2008. While some baked 45 dozen chocolate chip cookies in the church kitchen to feed hungry volunteers, others peeled shingles off roofs, pulled up sidewalk forms, and painted everything from sheds to bathrooms to foundations in the Time Check area with Block By Block, an organization that works to rebuild neighborhoods destroyed by the flood. If you would like to be part of a small group that not only studies together, but also serves together, please call Marcie Watson, Director of Spiritual Transformation, at (319) 365-1494 or email marciew@firstlutherancr.org.
