Octoberfest Is Fast Approaching
OctoberFest 2022 will be Saturday, October 22nd, between the hours of 11 AM and 4 PM. We’ll have German brat plates and barbecue plates available for $10 per plate ($5 for children and youth). And, of course, we’ll have our wonderful craft bazaar – perfect for getting a head start on Christmas! Then at the end of the day we’ll have a drawing for raffle ticket winners.
A reminder to crafters - Please bring in any items to be added to the bazaar sale as soon as possible. There is an empty table labeled “Crafts” downstairs in Founders Hall for them to be placed. Everything is needed on or before October 16th.
Plan to join us on the 22nd, and invite your neighbors and friends! There will be an announcement in the local paper but the very best advertising is word-of-mouth. Proceeds this year will all go to the Bethesda Mobile Medical Clinic.

OctoberFest Raffle Tickets
The cost of the tickets is $1 each, or 6 for $5. The prizes will be: a beautiful large quilt donated by our quilters; a lovely shawl donated by our knitters; dinner for four with a bottle of wine at Tony’s Country Corner Kitchen; one Works Service Package from Ronnie Thompson Ford in Ellijay; a day of whitewater rafting with John Hiscox; and a round of golf for two at Whitepath Golf Course.
The drawing will be held at the close of OctoberFest, October 22nd, at 3:30. Ticket holders do not have to be present to win a prize.

Christmas Appeal & Bike Blessing
As in recent years past, our community Christmas gift appeal this year will be held throughout October and the first week of November to support our local American Legion Christmas Toy Ride. We’re looking for unwrapped toys with a minimum price of $10 for boys and girls ages birth to 14 years. Cash gifts will be gladly accepted! Make checks to Hope Lutheran Church with “Toy Ride” on the memo line.
Our Evangelism Team and Men's Group are going to host a Blessing of the Bikes (and Bikers) on Saturday, November 5th to kick off the Toy Ride and deliver your gifts to prepare for the Legion Christmas party. Please know how much the folks at the Legion appreciate your generosity for the sake of the children in our community! A box for toys will be set up in our narthex to receive these gifts!
