Our mission is to bring the Mercy, Compassion, Presence, and Proclamation of Jesus Christ to those who are suffering and in need. Our 12/31 Annual Fund Appeal is the one time each year we request you to support the overall ministry of Lutheran Church Charities. Your gifts to our Annual Fund help us continue to make a difference.
We ask you to remember us last to keep us first to serve and prayerfully consider donating to our 12/31 Annual Fund Appeal.
Dr. Fontaine contacted Jan Boerman, Trinity Lisle team leader, to ask if any other assistance could possibly be provided to her students. She stated that many of these children are in desperate need of shoes and socks. She asked if it would be possible to provide a Walmart gift card for each student to purchase these needed items.
Through your generous donations, Lutheran Church Charities was able to support the Trinity Lisle LERT team in the purchasing and delivering of gift cards to Pastor Paul McComack to give to Dr. Fontaine for her students. Many of these students will now be receiving new shoes and socks for Christmas. Trinity Lutheran Church – Taylorville, Illinois
Concordia University Chicago LCC received the following email on Thursday, December 13, from Concordia University Chicago:
I just wanted to take a moment to express my sincerest thank you for taking the time to come out and bring so much joy to our students, faculty, and staff at CUC. Having the Comfort Dogs come during finals week is always the highlight of the week for our campus and is loved by all. Both Tobias Comfort Dog (Lord of Glory – Grayslake, Illinois) and Emma Comfort Dog (LCC Staff) were wonderful and warmed the hearts of our students who often find it difficult to implement good self-care during this time. Thank you for all that you do and making the time to share this amazing experience with us. Happy Holidays! Warm regards, Danielle Walejeski, M.A., LCPC, QPRT Director of Counseling Services Concordia University Chicago River Forest, Illinois
