NOTES & NODS

This Week at LCIF

Lutheran Church in the Foothills continues to offer “Couch Church” for the foreseeable future. This Sunday, May 24, Pastor Scott Peterson will preach on the topic of “The ‘ONE’ Thing” from his Being and Becoming series. It will live stream Sundays at 10 a.m. on its Facebook page –facebook.com/Lcifoothills/videos. After the live stream, the service can be found at www.lcifoothills.org. Bulletins for children and adults (along with games for children and a Bible quiz for adults) are also available on the website.

All are invited on Wednesdays at 10 a.m. for an interactive time of prayer and Scripture via Zoom. Details are available by contacting the church office.

For more information on these and other activities, please email the church at office@lcifoothills.org or call (818) 790-1951. The church building is located at 1700 Foothill Blvd. in La Canada Flintridge.

“Prayer requests, needs and offers to help are most welcome,” said Pastor Scott Peterson. “We are connecting those with needs to those who can help. We are the church, not the building. We will get through this together.”

Lutheran Church in the Foothills, the “touchdown church,” is located at 1700 Foothill Blvd. For more information, call (818) 790-1951 or visit www.lcifoothills.org.
