Spring Fling is an annual picnic and carnival held on our church lawn after Sunday worship. Children and adults alike enjoy lunch and snacks as well as fun activities such as bounce houses, a petting zoo, crafts, music, face painting, piñatas and raffle games. Spring Fling brings together children and families from our church, preschool and neighborhood for an afternoon of Christian fellowship.

Trunk or Treat is a fun alternative to traditional Trick-or-Treating and a great way for the members of Christ Lutheran to minister to our own children and families as well as those of our community. CLC members dress in costumes and offer candy from the trunks of their cars. And children from the church, preschool and neighborhood come to show off their Halloween attire and fill their bags with candy.

With Thanksgiving coming pretty soon, CLC has an opportunity to help those in need who are being served by the Mt Olive Lutheran Food Pantry. We are collecting baskets of groceries to make a bountiful Thanksgiving meal. During September and October, with the combined efforts of the congregation and the Preschool, our goal is to fill 50 baskets and thus fulfill the need of 50 families! So as you do your grocery shopping, consider picking up an additional item or two for a Thanksgiving basket. We're collecting these donations every Sunday in September and October.
