Seafarer’s International House (SIH) is an ecumenical mission of the ELCA and provides pastoral care, social assistance, and advocacy for seafarers and sojourners. Each year they ask us to participate in their Christmas-at-Sea event where we pack satchels to help bring a little joy to these men in the middle of the ocean on Christmas.
These items are still needed for the satchels: thermal or gym socks, sweatshirts, short-sleeved t-shirts in sizes M, L & XL.
This year we will be packing satchels on Sunday, December 10th after service. A sign-up sheet is available in the narthex. For more information see.
