Family Ministries
Family Ministries at Emmanuel has a three-fold purpose: Providing fellowship opportunities, care and support in time of need, and service to our community.
SENIOR'S LUNCH
Every third Wednesday of the month after the Noon service in the narthex.
CONNECTING EVENTS
Family Ministries co-ordinates annual events that bring together our church and school families, in worship, food and fun activities for all ages. Examples of such events are tubing on the French Broad River, picnics, pool parties, and special meals and receptions! Contact Shirley Parker to volunteer.
SCHOOL VOLUNTEERS
Family Ministries realizes that an extension of our congregation is our student body of Emmanuel Lutheran. With that in mind, Family Ministries reaches out to students at registration, Advent and Lent by the distribution of age appropriate material such as Advent Calenders, pencils, and other materials. Contact the school office to help.
BUSHWACKERS
The Bushwhackers tend to the Emmanuel grounds to keep them tidy and attractive. If you would like to lend a hand to support Emmanuel, that does not involve a meeting and get's you into "the outdoors," please call the church office.
PICKLEBALL
6 pm - 7:30 pm every Friday in the gym. Equipment provided. Contact Joel Helms for more info.
We are hopeful that this brief overview has increased your awareness of the Family Ministry Service. We would both welcome and appreciate your participation in our Ministry area!
