Numerous times a week the Bethany Riverside residents play Bingo.  Many of you help with Bingo on a regular basis, and it is VERY MUCH APPRECIATED.  In case you didn't know, once a month Bethany Riverside opens its "Bingo  Bucks Store."  The residents can spend their Bingo Bucks from winning Bingo during the month.  Bethany Riverside tries to have a good assortment of small items and snacks, but has a very limited budget for these items. If you are able to help out, know that the residents would be very grateful!

On Thur., Oct. 23 First Lutheran will be hosting an evening meal and faith conversation for Lutheran Campus Ministry. HOW CAN YOU HELP? Sign up at the Connecting Point to help with a portion of the meal, or to help set up and serve.
