Messiah Lutheran Church, Knoxville TN

Messiah holds a monthly devotional birthday celebration at Lakeshore Mental Health Institute every third Tuesday at 2:30 PM. Consumers (residents) celebrating birthdays during that month are honored by everybody singing Happy Birthday and providing them a present of their choice, either a T-shirt or cap. A brief devotion is conducted by the pastor followed with birthday cake and soda served by the residents.

Donations of women's and men's T-shirts (L & XL) are always needed. There is also a need for three birthday cakes and one diabetic cake each month.

All are invited to join the Lakeshore ministry. If interested in serving in this ministry, please contact the church office for more information.
