serving in this way. Each team just serves a few times<br />
a year. We are also responsible for church decorations<br />
at Christmas & Easter. The annual Mother-Daughter<br />
banquet is our fund-raiser. After the meeting, Secret<br />
Sisters will be revealed and redrawn for those who<br />
would like to participate. A Secret Sister remembers<br />
you in prayer and special occasions. Pick up an info<br />
sheet in the church office prior to the meeting. If you<br />
can’t attend the meeting, give your filled out form to<br />
Loretta, in the church office, prior to the 16th.<br />
Thanks to all the OSL members/families who helped<br />
decorate the church on the 11th. The turnout was<br />
awesome & really appreciated. Bless you for your<br />
work to enhance our church. Take down is <strong>Sunday</strong>,<br />
January 8th, for all that can help. It always goes a<br />
lot quicker!<br />

It’s All About the Babies...<br />
By the grace of God, the Mobile Crisis Pregnancy<br />
Center is doing marvelous things. The numbers<br />
for March - December, 2011 are:<br />
• 378 women were served in the center<br />
• 59 women were repeat visits<br />
• 319 women were new to the center<br />
• 130 negative pregnancy tests<br />
• 176 positive pregnancy tests<br />
• 155 women chose LIFE<br />
• 13 visits for information<br />
• 176 ultrasounds done<br />
• 21 babies lost, either...<br />
they said they were still having an abortion or<br />
we knew they had an appointment at Planned<br />
Parenthood or<br />
were not able to contact them after their visit or<br />
refused to take a blanket<br />
87% saved!<br />
We provided 166 blankets and over 28 people have<br />
participated in providing these blankets by: buying<br />
material, hemming material, crocheting edges,<br />
writing notes for each blanket, crocheting whole<br />
blankets, knitting blankets or giving money.<br />
Many people gave me money to buy material at<br />
JoAnn’s for the after Thanksgiving sale, over $400.<br />
We have material for at least 250 blankets and have<br />
some money left to buy yarn. Praise the Lord!<br />
Christine Melchor said that these 155 babies that<br />
were saved was all through the grace of God. HE has<br />
worked miracles thru the ultrasound machine.<br />
Please remember the bus and everything connected<br />
with it in prayer:<br />
• Good health for the Coalition Bus workers<br />
• Holy Spirit be with them as they minister to<br />
these girls<br />
• That the bus stays in good mechanical order<br />
(missed about 4 weeks since March for repairs)<br />

2012 Service Teams<br />
The new Those to Serve schedule is being<br />
developed. If you would like to be added to or<br />
taken off a team please let the church office know<br />
by January 15th. Teams to consider serving your<br />
church are: Carts, Greeters, Sound, Ushers,<br />
Altar Guild & Friday morning bulletin teams.<br />
Usually it just takes a couple hours once a month<br />
of service for most of these teams. Altar Guild,<br />
Carts & Greeters just a few times a year!<br />
Ushers are especially needed! Contact Ken Wright<br />
281-583-9228 (ken.w@acs-llc.net), or Ed Eckert<br />
281-447-1135 (eeckert@leecospring.com).<br />
Flower Chart 2012<br />
The new flower chart is on the hutch in the<br />
narthex. Commemorate your special occasions<br />
with flowers. Only 2 arrangements are available<br />
each <strong>Sunday</strong> for $25 each. Note your name and<br />
if you want to keep them with (W), or if you<br />
would rather send them to the sick with (S). You<br />
will get a reminder in the mail.<br />

5th Annual Bus Trip to Austin For LIfe!<br />
Join us on our Charter Bus and attend the 2012<br />
Texas Rally For <strong>Life</strong> - Saturday, January 28, 2012.<br />
This year’s Rally commemorates the 39th<br />
anniversary of the tragic Roe v. Wade Supreme<br />
Court decision in 1973, which made abortion legal<br />
throughout all nine months of pregnancy. In the<br />
wake of Roe, legal abortion in our nation has<br />
claimed the lives of more than 50 million unborn<br />
children and has hurt countless women and men.<br />
HLFL provides 4,500 Inserts to Local Congregations<br />
As part of our outreach - “Equipping <strong>Lutheran</strong>s to<br />
be Gospel-motivated voices For <strong>Life</strong>”, once again,<br />
Houston <strong>Lutheran</strong>s For <strong>Life</strong> is providing <strong>Life</strong><br />
<strong>Sunday</strong> Bulletin Inserts to twelve Houston area<br />
LCMS congregations.<br />
<strong>Life</strong> <strong>Sunday</strong> is January 22, 2012. This year it falls on the<br />
39th anniversary of Roe vs. Wade, January 22, 1973.<br />
Mission Statement: “Equipping <strong>Lutheran</strong>s to be<br />
Gospel-motivated voices For <strong>Life</strong>!”<br />
For the 4th straight year the Norman Adams family<br />
has sponsored our Charter bus so bring your whole<br />
family and join us - the total cost is ONLY $10<br />

including College are FREE.<br />
The next General Membership Meeting of HLFL<br />
will be held on the bus. <strong>Our</strong> Charter Bus will<br />

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.<br />
Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your<br />
stand against the devil’s schemes.<br />
For our struggle is not against ßesh and blood, but against<br />
the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of<br />
this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the<br />
heavenly realms. - Eph. 6:10-12<br />
Mike Jolley<br />
President - Houston <strong>Lutheran</strong>s For <strong>Life</strong><br />
“Choose life!” (Deuteronomy 30:19) The word<br />
“choice” in connection with life raises all kinds of<br />
questions and controversy. The Christian view of<br />
“choice” differs greatly from the world’s view. The<br />
world chooses based on what they want. We base our<br />
choices on being chosen by God in Jesus Christ. As<br />
chosen people, we are called to Þrst and foremost trust<br />
God and His will as we make our choices.<br />
Let HLFL Speakers address your next group!<br />
Houston <strong>Lutheran</strong>s For <strong>Life</strong> is prepared to present a<br />
variety of “Special Presentations” on <strong>Life</strong> Issues.<br />
We address Adult Groups, Youth Groups, Bible<br />
Classes, School Classes or Assemblies. We realize<br />
how important it is for all of us to understand the<br />
value of life and learn the Biblical basis of how God<br />
views all life as precious. We would love to be a<br />
resource to your group as a powerful, Biblical, prolife<br />
voice. Through this study, God, through His<br />
Word, can change hearts and through them<br />
transform society. Here are some of the<br />
presentations we have:<br />
¥ “The Mission, Message and Manner of <strong>Lutheran</strong>s For<br />
<strong>Life</strong>” (10 min.; Jr. High School to Adult.)<br />
¥ “<strong>Lutheran</strong>s For <strong>Life</strong> – Who Are We?” (25 min.; Jr. High<br />
School to Adult.)<br />
¥ "Biotechnology 101: A Primer" (45 min.; High School to<br />
Adult.)<br />
¥ “The Basics on Advance Directives” (25 min.; Adult.)<br />
¥ “God’s View of the Value of <strong>Life</strong>” (12 min.; Grades K-8)<br />

Texans Honor Mr. Eifert<br />
The Houston Texans sponsored a program this year to<br />
honor one outstanding teacher in the Houston area for<br />
each home game. Erica Puryear nominated our very own,<br />
Mr. Eifert, because of the compassion he showed her as a<br />
new student feeling a little out of place and overwhelmed.<br />
Mr. Eifert picked up on the fact that Erica was a huge Texan<br />
fan and started talking to her about the team, players<br />
and games throughout the day. Mr. Eifert put her at ease<br />
and helped her to quickly adjust to life at OSL. On the<br />
Tuesday before the game, Darryl Sharpton, a linebacker<br />
for the Texans, came to OSL and spoke with Mr. Eifert<br />
and his students during an assembly in the gym. That<br />
<strong>Sunday</strong>, Mr. Eifert was given 4 field passes to the Texans<br />
game where he was given the VIP treatment and featured<br />
on the big screen during the 4th quarter. We are blessed<br />
to have a staff<br />
of wonderful,<br />
caring teachers,<br />
and we are<br />
excited for this<br />
honor to have<br />
been bestowed<br />
on Mr. Eifert.<br />
Chapel Offerings<br />
During the months of December and January, our chapel<br />
offerings will be collected to help The Gabriel Project. The<br />
Gabriel Project helps expectant mothers who are at least<br />
seven months pregnant or mothers who have a child six<br />
months or younger. The Gabriel Project offers limited<br />
financial help, food, and a baby layette to those in crisis.<br />
