KIDS Saving Stamps Program: Purchase
stamps for 25 cents or $1.00, fill your booklet and send to Lutheran Church
Extension Fund. Open to all children 18 and younger. Save money and do God’s
work by helping to build churches and schools. A great way to save for
college. Your money draws interest so you’ll have more than what you put in.
See Gloria for more information.
