donnelly news

  

Oct 13th-20th


Welcome to another edition of the Donnelly news

Weather news after a chilly weekend, it has turned nice this week. Most of the soybean harvest in the area is complete. So now a lot of the corn in the area is being picked.

ST. John's/Kongsvinger news: The October schedule is the same as it has been for several months with drive-in communion services at Kong on the first Sunday of the month and the 4th Sunday at St John's. Other Sundays will be a service of the word. No other activities will take place in either church until further notice.


Rev. Rochelle Anderson of Morris will be providing pastoral care until further notice; if you need care, contact the parish office or one of the church presidents. You can also watch our "virtue" services on Facebook and YouTube.


The parish office is closed due to the COVID 19 outbreak; call 246-3211, or e-mail (stjKongsvinger@runestone.net) or send mail (box 97) when assistance is needed.

There will be No lutefisk dinner at first this year. Instead, a ham take -out dinner will replace it on November 6th from 4:30–7 p.m.   No meatball dinner at Faith or a Fall Festival at Kongsvinger this yr.  I assume this applies to most of the other fall dinners in the area.
