Immanuel Lutheran Church
Sharing Christ’s Love Through Worship, Prayer, and Service
Community Service Team
Members of Thrivent Financial for Lutherans at Immanuel teamed up with Thrivent members from Salem Lutheran Church for a community service project in November. The project was funded by the Thrivent Member Chapter of the central UP. The service team's assignment was to shop for $500 worth of food for the Salvation Army's food pantry.
The service team met at Elmers County Market at 1:00pm. The plan was to have them all take a basket and gather about $80 worth of food.

And then after a 5 minute drive, unloading Thrivent's contribution of $506 worth of food for the Salvation Army's local food pantry. Major Cox was there to show us the way into the food pantry storage room.
A large amount of food is needed this year to serve the needs of many families in the area. Immanuel Lutheran, Salem Lutheran, and the Salvation Army all serve the community from the same neighborhood, all south and west of the Escanaba High School along 5th Avenue South.
