THE RIVER OF LIFE CLOTHING STORE IS NOW OPEN!
If you’re looking for church apparel, the River of LIFE Clothing Store is open again and ready for orders. You can order online by visiting the Helpful Links section, located just below the red line on our website and app. The store will only be open for a limited time, so be sure to place your order soon. We added a lightweight sweatshirt option this time, and we also kept the original sweatshirt style, since we had several requests for that. Many of the popular items from past years are still available. A couple of sample items are hanging in the narthex if you’d like to check them out.
5TH ANNUAL RIVER OF LIFE SPORTING CLAYS SHOOT
The 5th Annual River of LIFE Sporting Clays Shoot will take place on Saturday, October 11, at 10:00am at the Caribou Gun Club in Le Sueur. This event is open to everyone who can safely handle a shotgun. The cost is $30 for 50 rounds, and shells are available for purchase at the club. Bring your own hearing and eye protection. After the shoot, we’ll head to St. Peter for lunch together. If you need a ride, directions, or more information, please contact Steve Peterson at (507) 995‑4405. Come enjoy the outdoors and some great fellowship!
ALL SAINTS DAY – SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 2
If you have a loved one who passed away between November 1, 2024, and October 31, 2025, and you would like their name included in our All Saints' Day recognition, please let us know. You can call the church office or email Tracy by Monday, October 27. We will honor these individuals during worship on Sunday, November 2.
PASTOR TOM’S RETIREMENT
Pastor Tom had faithfully served here at River of LIFE and was instrumental in planting our church. He recently announced his retirement, effective October 31, 2025. A display is set up in the narthex where you can write a note. Note cards and message starters are provided, but you are also welcome to bring your own cards. In addition, some have expressed interest in giving a group monetary gift. Heather Magelee is gathering donations and will take care of purchasing a few items on behalf of the congregation. If you’d like to contribute, please connect with her.
YOUTH GROUP HELP WITH MEALS & SERVING
Our youth group has been meeting, and they are excited to be back together again. An important part of this ministry includes sharing a meal, and we need your help to keep it going. You can sign up to provide a meal or to serve and clean up after the meal. To sign up, go to the Helpful Links section of our website or app and look just below the red line.
