Joes
Shed
Update
I
just
want
to
report
to
the
congregation
the
nal
gures
for
Joe's
Shed.
The
shed
is
done
thanks
to
Rich
Thompson
and
his
band
of
helpers.
They
include
Don
Darling,
Doyle
Scott,
Ken
Henrichsen,
Mark
Kenyon,
John
Patience,
and
Donald
Larson.
There
were
116
hours
donated
by
these
guys
in
the
construction
of
Joes
Shed.
Rich
and
Jayson
and
Wendy
McDonald
also
donated
materials
and
equipment.
Those
making
donations
to
the
shed
are,
Liz
Hansen,
Bob/Velma
VanScoy,
Ivan/Dorothy
Marckmann,
Ethel
Lamb,
Marty
Cline,
Weidmans,
Ron/Kathie
Wass,
Jody
Knudson
and
Gus
and
Erlene.
A
big
thank
you
goes
out
to
all
these
workers
and
donors.
This
project
would
not
have
been
possible
without
them.
The
nal
cost
for
the
shed
is
$2983.49
and
it's
all
paid
in
full!
It
just
shows
that
we
have
a
very
giving
congregation
when
the
need
arises.
Thanks
again
to
all!
Joe
would
be
very
humbled
that
his
shed
became
a
reality!

Community
Thanksgiving
Service
The
annual
community
Thanksgiving
service
for
Winterset
will
be
held
here
at
St.
Paul
on
Sunday
evening,
the
24th,
at
7:00
p.m.,
with
sermon
by
Pastor
Jared
of
the
Seventh
Day
Adventist
Church.
Everyone
is
welcome
to
attend.
Thank
You!
I
want
to
recognize
Don
Darling
and
Doyle
Scott
for
all
their
hard
work
in
helping
the
"kitchen
crew"
get
their
new
oven
up
and
running
and
also
hooking
up
our
new
coee
pot.
Water
had
to
be
run
to
the
coee
pot
so
it
did
take
some
time
on
their
part
to
get
the
job
done.
Don
also
hooked
up
the
TV
we
purchased
for
the
high
school
class
room.
I
can't
say
enough
about
these
two
guys
and
all
the
help
they
have
been
to
us.
We
are
so
lucky
to
have
them
in
our
congregation!
Thanks
again
guys!
