Over the Summer
August found Gnosko cooking up chicken for lunch at the campout following Sunday’s service. There was no shortage of watermelon and the chicken was something to look forward too. Grilling is the Summer thing to do! Our group enjoyed the various tasks to make this food event happen from prepping the food in the Summer kitchen to the manning the meat grilling station, to serving and cleanup.
Fellowship
In Mid-September Gnosko full group attended the Glenn Kaiser concert held at the bandshell on the waterfront in Hudson! It was a nice warm, sunny day. So, Summer came back to us again and we enjoyed the sights and sounds of the day including the music and sharing of Glenn’s testimony and ministry in action along with some great tunes. Three hot air balloons floated by just through the trees. They even dipped down into the water and left a trail of water raining down as they ascended back up. Future fun perhaps to one day take our own ride/turn up in one of those. What a neat perspective. There were opportunities to get to know the community at large in the audience and the vendors who were present. Some of us took advantage of pairing up with another couple either before or after and grab lunch or dinner together.
Heading into Fall
At the beginning of October, we found ourselves flipping flapjacks for the Prayer Breakfast. It was a lot of fun to be able to serve breakfast for all who attended.
As a Gnosko group, we took a Fall color tour down to Alma WI to meet at Buena Vista Park on Sunday, October 13th. We had a great time although it was very windy and chilly, at least we did not have the 4” of snow that we had when we went last year.
Out of Town adventure!
Our Gnosko leaders are planning an escape room adventure in Rice Lake on Friday, October 18th which is described as a peaceful Ocean Charter Tour until a storm picks up and destroys the ship, leaving you and the other six people aboard stranded on an uncharted desert island… WITH AN ACTIVE VOLCANO???? This should be a good test for us as leaders to see how well we can work together.
What’s ahead
Also coming up this fall we would like to do some local home repair projects in our community. So please be in prayer for us on this and let us know if you know of someone in need. This could be sheetrock, window or door repair, as well as winter-proofing.
